Best Prosciutto Taleggio And Radicchio Panini Recipes

PANINI WITH PROSCIUTTO, ROASTED PEPPER AND MOZZARELLA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan or large nonstick griddle over medium to medium high heat. Build your sandwiches: place 2 or 3 slices of prosciutto on 1 piece of bread. Top with an even layer of roasted pepper and an even layer of sliced mozzarella, top with another slice of bread. Drizzle the tops of your assembled sandwiches with extra-virgin olive oil. Place the olive oil coated bread face down on the grill or griddle and drizzle the opposite side with additional extra-virgin olive oil. Weight the sandwiches down with a tin foil covered brick or a heavy skillet filled with a sack of flour or heavy canned goods. Press the sandwiches 2 or 3 minutes on each side, then serve immediately.

SAUTEED MUSHROOM, PROSCIUTTO, AND TALEGGIO PANINI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add shallot, and cook until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Raise heat to medium-high; add mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft, golden brown, and most of the juices have evaporated, about 8 minutes. Add thyme or oregano, and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat a griddle or large cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Slice bread in half horizontally. Layer each of the bottom halves with mushroom mixture, prosciutto, and cheese. Cover with remaining top bread halves.
• Brush outer sides of bread with oil, spreading it to the edges. Place two sandwiches in skillet or on griddle, and weight with a sandwich press or the bottom of another skillet. Cook until golden brown on first side, 3 to 4 minutes; turn, and continue cooking until other side is golden and the cheese has completely melted, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet, and keep warm in the oven while making remaining sandwiches. Serve immediately.

PROSCIUTTO AND PESTO PANINI

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat or a panini press.
• Spread one cut side of ciabatta with the pesto and the other with olive oil. Layer one side of ciabatta with prosciutto, tapenade, if desired, red pepper, and arugula or basil, if desired; top with cheese. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Top with remaining bread.
• Brush top and bottom of the sandwich with olive oil. Place on grill pan and weight top of sandwich with a heavy skillet or a foil-wrapped brick. If using a panini press, grill according to manufacturer's instructions. Grill 3 to 4 minutes on first side, turn, weight down, and continue cooking until sandwich is golden and cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Cut sandwich into quarters. Serve immediately.

SMOKED GOUDA AND PROSCIUTTO PANINI SANDWICH

• Brush both sides of the slices of bread with olive oil or butter. Assemble the sandwich layers as follows: prepared bread, smoked gouda, prosciutto, onions, tomato, fontina, and bread. Place in a panini press (or in a heated grill pan or saute pan pressed with another heavy pan) and cook until crisp and golden. Serve immediately.

PROSCIUTTO AND MOZZARELLA PANINI

Steps:

• Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl to blend.
• Arrange the slices of bread on a flat work surface and spread the vinaigrette on one side of each slice. Divide the mozzarella equally among 4 of the bread slices. Top with the prosciutto and roasted red peppers, then place the remaining 4 slices of bread on top, vinaigrette-side down, to form 4 sandwiches.
• Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook, pressing them occasionally with a large spatula or the bottom of a small heavy saucepan, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 4 minutes per side.
