Ingredients
Instructions
- In a skillet/frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil and add sliced onion in. Sauté for 3-4 minutes on medium heat. When done, add cranberry sauce and stir it around. If the sauce is too thick, add a little water (2-3 tablespoons). Simmer for a minute before transferring the mixture into a bowl.
- Put the skillet back on the stove and add the remaining oil. Throw in sliced turkey breast pieces and let it brown slightly. When ready, turn off the heat.
- Assemble the sandwich: Spread both slices with cream cheese, top with turkey, onion cranberry sauce and cheese. Cover with the second slice, cream cheese side down.
- Drizzle the top with little olive oil (½ teaspoon). Grill in a pre-heated panini machine for about 2 minutes or until it looks to your liking.
Notes
- I used turkey breast but you can use any turkey leftovers you have. The amount you use is entirely up to you.
- Cheddar cheese can be substituted with Gouda or Mozzarella. Again, you can increase or decrease the amount of cheese.
- Olive oil – use extra virgin olive oil or cooking olive oil. I don’t recommend using vegetable or sunflower oil.
