Grilled Chicken and Provolone Panini
4 chicken breast halves, boneless and skinless 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, melted 2 teaspoons fresh sage, chopped, or 1/2 teaspoon dried 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped, or 1/2 teaspoon dried Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 4 crusty rolls of choice, French, Italian, sourdough 1/3 cup balsamic vinaigrette dressing 2 cups (about 4 ounces) arugula, washed and dried 8 pieces (about 4 ounces) Prosciutto, thinly sliced 8 pieces (about 4 ounces) provolone, thinly sliced

Slice rolls in half. Sprinkle bottom of each roll with vinaigrette. Divide arugula among the four rolls. Layer 2 slices of Prosciutto and 2 slices of provolone on each roll. Slice each chicken breast half crosswise into diagonal slices, about 1/2-inch thick and place on top of cheese. Drizzle more vinaigrette over chicken. Place top of roll on and press down gently so sandwich stays together. Tightly wrap each sandwich in plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving time. Makes 4.

Drain and discard the liquid off of the marinated steak, remove and discard the garlic cloves and set aside. Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the onions and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add the reserved steak and the bell peppers and cook, stirring 2 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes, or until the steak is at the desired degree of doneness. Season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and the pepper, remove from the heat and set aside. Spread 1 tablespoon of the Chipotle Mayonnaise over each half of the panini bread. Divide the steak, onion, and pepper mixture over 4 pieces of panini bread. Top with shredded cheese and the other panini half. Heat a panini press or grill pan over high heat. Spread 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil over the top of each panini and 1 tablespoon over the bottom of each panini.
