Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 teaspoon butter
2 tablespoons sliced fresh mushrooms
½ cup tomato sauce
4 ciabatta rolls, split
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon dried oregano
8 slices hot Genoa salami
8 slices roasted ham
2 tablespoons diced red onion
2 tablespoons chopped roasted red pepper
2 tablespoons chopped black olives
4 leaves basil, chopped
4 slices provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat; add mushrooms and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat to cool.
  • Preheat a panini press according to manufacturer's instructions.
  • Spread an even layer of tomato sauce onto the cut sides of each ciabatta roll. Sprinkle equal amounts of garlic and oregano onto each roll. Place 2 salami slices side by side onto each roll; top each with 2 slices ham. Divide red onion, mushrooms, red pepper, olives, and basil between the 4 sandwiches and spread evenly atop the meats. Finish by topping with provolone cheese and sandwiching roll halves around the fillings.
  • Cook sandwiches on preheated panini press until there are dark brown grill marks on the bread, the cheese is melted, and the center is warm, about 5 minutes.
