Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup fig preserves
1 (8 ounce) ciabatta, cut lengthwise
1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons butter, softened
8 ounces sliced cooked chicken breasts
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 cups arugula leaves
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Spread jam over cut side of top half of bread.
  • Combine cheese and butter in a bowl, stirring until smooth.
  • Spread cheese mixture over cut side of bottom half of bread.
  • Arrange chicken evenly over cheese mixture; sprinkle with pepper.
  • Place top half of bread, jam side down, over chicken.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, and add sandwich to pan.
  • Place a heavy cast-iron skillet on sandwich; cook 5 minutes or until both sides are browned, turning once.
  • (Or use a panini maker as you usually would. I don't have one. I have no idea how long it would take to make the sandwich that way.).
  • Place arugula in a bowl.
  • Drizzle lemon juice over arugula; toss gently.
  • Remove top bread half from sandwich. Arrange arugula mixture over chicken. Replace top bread half.
  • Cut sandwich into 4 equal portions.
