Preparation steps

1.
Preheat a panini grill or two-sided grill.
2.
Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet set over medium-high heat, add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the spinach and cook until the just wilted stage.
3.
In a medium bowl, combine spinach mixture and chopped artichoke hearts. Season with salt and pepper and toss to incorporate.
4.
Butter one side of each bread slice. Divide the spinach and artichoke mixture evenly between the unbuttered side of four bread slices. Top with the remaining bread slice, buttered side up.
5.
Grill each panini for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the bread is crisp. Cut each sandwich in half and serve.
