Best Fresh Fig And Prosciutto Sandwich Recipes

FRESH FIG AND PROSCIUTTO SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Scoop out a bit of bread from the centre of the bread halves.
• Mix the oil and basil in a small bowl and drizzle evenly over both bread halves.
• Arrange the prosciutto evenly over the bottom half of the bread.
• Gently spread the cheese over the prosciutto and top the cheese with sliced figs. Sprinkle with the lemon juice and black pepper.
• Cover with the top half of the bread and wrap in aluminum foil, leaving the seam on top open slightly.
• Bake until the cheese is melted and the sandwich is heated through, about 15 minutes. Cut into 8 equal pieces and serve immediately.

GRILLED FRESH MOZZARELLA, PROSCIUTTO, AND FIG JAM SANDWICH

Steps:

• Split each roll, and layer with the mozzarella and prosciutto.
• Spread the top slices with the fig jam, then close up to form sandwiches.
• Lightly butter the outside of each sandwich.
• Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or panini press over med-high heat.
• Place the sandwiches in the pan, working in two batches depending on the size of the pan.
• Press the sandwiches or close the grill and brown, turning once or twice, until the bread is crisp and the cheese is melted; **you can press the sandwiches by weighting them with something heavy-such as a skillet or wide-bottomed saucepan.
• Though the rolls start off as round, once pressed they are considerably flatter and can easily be turned, if careful.
• Serve right away, cut on the diagonal.
