Sometimes there are ingredients that are so simple standing alone, but when paired together create the most amazing blend of flavors. This chicken sausage and Brie panini was inspired by a sandwich at one of my favorite coffee shops on the upper west side. The creamy Brie balances out the peppery bite of the arugula while the chicken sausage adds a smoky flavor and depth to this simple panini. If you don’t have a panini press then you can use a heated skillet and press a pan down on top of the sandwich to soften the Brie.
