How Do You Make A Panini Without The Press?
Instead of spending more money on kitchen appliances and taking up more counter room, try making a great tasting panini without the press. Step 1 Start by gathering all the ingredients you need for your panini. Step 2 Heat up a large nonstick skillet on medium high heat, and coat it with a cooking spray. You can butter the bread like you would for a grilled cheese sandwich if you choose. Step 3 If you spray the pan then brush your sandwich slightly with olive oil. Step 4 Place the sandwich, oil side down into the heated skillet. Step 5 Place a heavy pot on top of the sandwich and place a few heavy canned foods on top of the pot. Step 6 Cook for two minutes and then remove the cans and the pot. Step 7 Brush the uncooked side of the sandwich with olive oil and flip it over. Step 8 Weigh it down again the same way. Cook for another two minutes, or until crisp on both sides. Step 9 Remove from pan and enjoy!
