I'm having a few friends over for brunch %26amp; need some gourmet sandwich recipes. I was thinking of using foccacia bread so they won't get soggy. I'd like to use prosciutto or salami, smoked turkey and mortadella or ham so I need some toppings %26amp; cheeses to go with the 3 different types of meats. Also, I'd like to use roasted red peppers for one type of the sandwiches. Any ideas?Need simple gourmet sandwich recipes?
Panino di Prosciutto e Fontina
Ingredients
2 to 4 slices (3 ounces total) fontina cheese
2 slices (1/2-inch-thick) rustic white bread
2 paper-thin slices red onion (optional)
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
6 fresh baby spinach leaves
1 to 2 paper-thin slices (1/2-ounce) prosciutto
2 to 3 teaspoons olive oil
Directions
Place 1 to 2 slices of fontina atop 1 bread slice. Top with the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Then add spinach and prosciutto. Add the remaining slice(s) of fontina. Top with the second bread slice. Brush both sides of the sandwich with the oil.
Heat a grill pan over medium-low heat. Grill the sandwich until the bread is golden brown and the cheese melts, pressing down with a metal spatula or grill press, about 4 minutes per side.Need simple gourmet sandwich recipes?
