Ingredients

For the Lemon Dill Mayonnaise:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 4 teaspoons fresh dill finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground

For the Sandwich:

  • 4 slices multigrain bread or any rustic bread
  • Lettuce leaves
  • 4 ounces smoked salmon

Instructions

Directions:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, fresh dill, and black pepper. Stir until well incorporated.
  • Take two slices of multigrain bread and spread a generous amount of the lemon dill mayonnaise on one side of each slice. Layer lettuce leaves and smoked salmon on one slice, then top with the other slice, mayonnaise side down.
  • Preheat your panini press or grill pan. Grill the sandwich until the bread is golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes per side.
  • Remove the sandwich from the heat, cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve with a side salad or chips.
