The perfect flavor combo–prosciutto, Provolone, pesto, and roasted bell peppers–on rustic bread and toasted in a panini press makes a great lunch or a quick, light dinner.
Ingredients
- ½ cup CARAPELLI® Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 8 slices rustic Italian or sourdough bread
- ¼ cup prepared basil pesto
- 16 thin slices Provolone cheese
- 12 thin slices prosciutto
- 4 whole, well-drained bottled roasted red peppers, cut into strips
Directions
Step 1
Heat a panini grill or waffle iron. Brush oil over bread slices. Turn 4 slices over; spread pesto evenly over bread. Top with half of the cheese, tearing to fit if necessary, all of the prosciutto and pepper strips and remaining cheese. Close sandwiches with remaining bread oiled sides up.
Step 2
Cook (in batches) in panini maker* or waffle iron 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is melted.
Tips
*Panini sandwiches may also be cooked in a ridged grill pan or nonstick skillet over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side.
