Southwest Panini

This was really inspired by Rachel who described a sandwich she had at the Cannon Center.
1 Cup of Corn and Black Bean Salsa (Walmart has a great brand - sorry Rachel)
Drain it of all the excess tomato juice
Mix it with shredded chicken
You can either put shredded Mexican style cheese in with the salsa or put a spicy pepperjack on the bread.
In case anyone out there is new to the Panini world, the first thing you do is brush one side of the bread with olive oil. I place that on the grill (oil side down) and build the sandwich on the grill. I always put my sauce, and/or cheese first so that it can be melting while I build the rest of the sandwich on the grill. When all the other ingredients are on the sandwich top with the other slice of oiled bread - oil side out on top and grill.
