Instructions:

Step 1.

In a medium-sized skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, on medium heat. Once hot, add Hungry Planet Chicken™ and cook, browning meat on all sides, and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Season with salt and pepper and add lemon zest. Stir and remove from the pan.
Step 2.

In the same pan, add 2 teaspoons of olive oil and heat on medium. Add kale, and red peppers, and chili flakes and cook for 2 minutes.
Step 3.

To assemble, spread mayonnaise on both halves of sourdough bread. Add parmesan cheese, then chicken, then kale and red peppers. Add the top piece of bread on and put into a lightly oiled panini press. Cook on medium-high heat for 6 minutes or until panini is hot all the way through.
