The Freshman Cook: Chicken Marinara Panini / #SundaySupper

Chicken Marinara Panini
(printable recipe at end of post) 
Chicken Breasts
Italian Bread
Butter
Marinara Sauce
Mozzarella Cheese 
Onion

Set panini press to medium high to heat.  Cook your chicken and let it cool. Slice it lengthwise so it is not as thick. 
Cut 2 slices of bread for each sandwich. Lightly spread butter on  one side of each slice. Make sure the side you spread the butter on is the outside.
Turn the butter sides down and spread marinara sauce on both inside pieces. I have used homemade marinara and store bought marinara. Use what you love!
Top the marinara with shredded cheese on both pieces, and add the onion and chicken to one piece.
Your sandwich is ready for the panini press!
Place on panini press and toast for 7-8 minutes. 
Cut in half and enjoy the goodness of that melty cheese!
