Servings: 4
Ingredients:
-
1/4 cup (50 mL) olive oil
2 tsp (10 mL) balsamic vinegar
1 tsp (5 mL) dijon mustard
1 tsp (5 mL) maple syrup
1 small clove garlic, minced
1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 zucchini, cut lengthwise in 1/4-inch (5 mm) thick slices
4 panini rolls
1/2 cup (125 mL) low-fat plain yogurt
1/4 cup (50 mL) light mayonnaise
2 tbsp (25 mL) prepared pesto
5 oz (150 g) brie cheese, thinly sliced
4 leaves green leaf lettuce
Preparation:
In bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, mustard, maple syrup, garlic, salt and pepper. Remove 2 tbsp (25 mL) and set aside for zucchini. Add chicken to bowl, turning to coat; cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning occasionally.
Discarding marinade, place chicken on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and cook, turning once, for 12 minutes or until no longer pink inside.
Meanwhile, brush 1 side of zucchini with half of the reserved marinade. Add, brushed side down, to grill; cook, covered, for 3 minutes. Brush with remaining marinade; turn and cook for 2 minutes longer or until tender and grill-marked.
Slice rolls in half horizontally. Stir together yogurt, mayonnaise and pesto; spread over cut sides of rolls. Sandwich chicken, zucchini, Brie and lettuce in rolls. Place on grill for several minutes or until rolls are crusty and heated through.
