Chicken Panini's with Shaved Apples & Balsamic Reduction

Ingredients:
4 chicken cutlets
Brie (or cheese of your choice)
1 Granny Smith Apple
Balsamic Reduction (recipe to follow)
French Bread (or similar)

Season chicken cutlets and saute in a large pan over medium high heat until cooked. Cut bread in 4 sections and slice each section. Spread balsamic reduction over the sliced french bread. Top with cheese and then chicken. Using a vegetable peeler, shave apple into thin slices and spread over chicken. Top with other half of bread and grill on a panini press.

If you don't have a panini press, you can toast bread before assembling sandwich.

Balsamic Reduction:
1/3 Balsamic Vinegar
2 Tsp Dijon mustard
2 Tsp Honey

Mix together ingredients in a small sauce pan over medium high heat and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the liquid reduces to approx 1/4 (about 3-5 minutes).
