I use these from Nahsbar. They are a pretty good middle of the road size.

ANGLETECH TECHWIND™ Panniers
"These panniers, wind tunnel designed and proven, made your bike up to 7% faster through the wind than a bike without panniers."
Edit: No I haven't used them. I looked at them though and they were very nice quality. Someday maybe I just didn't think they would fit all my stuff.

The techwinds are the right size, but very pricey - Angletech Techwind Panniers : Angletech/CycleDifferent Seems like they are aimed at the recumbent market these days.

I have an older rev of these. I love the minimalist mounting. Effective but doesn't make it annoying off the bike. *

*my bag basically has that mounting built into the bag vs remaining on the rack.

I use a trunk bag will panniers that fold out if needed. I've been very happy with it.

I use the Detours Fremonster Flap Pannier. I think it's a reasonable size for your proposed load and it has a detachable shoulder strap for carrying off the bike.

Thin was definitely a design consideration for these! I made them 6 or 7 years ago - a bit overkill for most of my rides but pretty awesome for groceries or trips. These have an advantage over most commercial panniers in that both sides fold out, almost doubling the volume when I want but compact and narrow otherwise.
