Caprese panini from the grill

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes

When you go shopping in the city you often eat a sandwich for lunch. But of course you can also do this at home if you want to have a nice lunch. My favorite is Caprese. And you can make it super easily on the grill. With a generous lick of pesto, good soft mozzarella and a ripe tomato you can make a fantastically tasty sandwich. Sprinkle some pepper or chili powder on the tomato for some extra spice. Caprese panini from the grill

Caprese panini from the grill

Caprese is a traditional Italian salad consisting of mozzarella, tomatoes and basil. It is a simple but tasty combination of fresh ingredients. The mozzarella provides a creamy texture, while the tomatoes are sweet and juicy. The basil adds a delicious spicy flavor. Caprese is a beloved dish that can be served as an appetizer, side dish, or even on a sandwich such as a panini.

Start by spreading a generous layer of pesto on the bread. The combination of basil, pine nuts, garlic and Parmesan cheese gives the panini a delicious taste. Then add slices of soft mozzarella. Cut a ripe tomato into thin slices and place them on top of the mozzarella. To add some extra spice, you can sprinkle some freshly ground pepper or chili powder over the tomato.

Now it's time to put the panini on the grill. Make sure the grill is at the right temperature so that the bread becomes nice and golden brown and crispy while the cheese melts. After a few minutes your Caprese panini is ready to serve. Cut it in half and enjoy the delicious warm bread, melted cheese and juicy tomatoes with a touch of basil and pesto.

Here you will find the complete recipe with all the ingredients you need. I hope you have fun preparing the dish below.
