GRILLED LAMB SANDWICHES



Grilled Lamb Sandwiches image

Provided by Guy Fieri

Time 2h

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

1/2 tablespoon capers
1 teaspoon fresh oregano leaves
4 cloves garlic
2 cups plain unsweetened yogurt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for grilling
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
One 3 to 4-pound leg of lamb, butterflied
1 sourdough baguette (use 2 if serving 8)
Harissa Mayo, for serving, recipe follows
Quick Pickled Sweet Cucumbers, for serving, recipe follows
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons store-bought harissa paste
1/2 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 hothouse cucumber, finely sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 Fresno chile, halved lengthwise, seeded if desired and finely sliced
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup white vinegar

Steps:

  • Make the marinade by finely mincing the capers, oregano and garlic together. Add to a small bowl along with the yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest and some salt and pepper, stirring until well combined. Place the lamb in a large resealable bag and pour in the yogurt marinade. Mix it around so the lamb is completely coated all over. Squeeze out any air, reseal the bag and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  • When the lamb is marinated, remove it from the bag and wipe off any excess with paper towels. Unfold the lamb, drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle well with salt and pepper on both sides; this will help form a nice crust. Grill for about 15 minutes, then flip once and cook for another 12 minutes on the second side until cooked through and you have some color on the lamb. When done, remove from the grill, tent with foil and let rest for 10 to 12 minutes before carving across the grain into thin slices.
  • Take the baguette and split horizontally lengthwise so you have long halves. Place on the grill to warm the bread through and get slightly crisp, about 2 minutes per side.
  • To assemble the sandwiches, smear the bread with Harissa Mayo, stack with slices of lamb and Quick Pickled Sweet Cucumbers. Place the top of the baguette on and slice the sandwich into quarters.
  • Mix the mayonnaise, sour cream, harissa, vinegar and cumin together in a large bowl and stir with a whisk to combine. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as desired. Refrigerate and serve smeared on lamb sandwiches.
  • Add the cucumber slices and chile slices to a medium bowl and toss to combine.
  • In a medium saucepan, add the vinegar, sugar, 1/2 water and salt. Heat gently, stirring, just until the sugar and salt dissolve. Pour over the cucumbers and chiles in the bowl. Set aside to marinate at least 15 minutes before serving.

GRILLED HAM AND SWISS SANDWICH WITH GRILLED ONIONS ON TOAST



Grilled Ham and Swiss Sandwich With Grilled Onions on Toast image

This is a favorite I made up while working in my family's restaurant in New Orleans. I got tired of the same ole' stuff on the menu so had fun with making this. I even served it to my favorite customers if they asked real nice!

Provided by A Good Thing

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 slices deli style ham (the long ones work well)
1 slice swiss cheese
2 slices bread
1/3 cup onion, chopped
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon oil
1 lettuce leaf
2 slices tomatoes
3 slices pickles
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon mustard
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • First, grill your onions to your liking in a pan with a small amount of oil. Put aside.
  • Wash lettuce and have your sandwich fillings ready for assembly.
  • On a hot plate, skillet, etc., place one slice of ham down, followed by swiss cheese, then the other slice of ham (if you use the long slices of ham, they will wrap around the cheese quite nicely). The cheese should be as protected from the pan as much as possible. You want to heat on a medium/high heat and flip this after a minute or two so the top side gets a turn down on the pan. But don't cook this too long as it will make the meat tough and the cheese will melt and leak out all over the place. Just heat until meat is slightly brown on top and bottom and the cheese has mostly melted.
  • While meat and cheese are cooking, place 2 slices of bread in toaster. When done, add mayo and/or mustard to toast and place ham/cheese on bottom slice of toast. Top with grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, pickle, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add top piece of toast, slice sandwich on the diagonal, throw on a plate with some potato chips and get busy (all the while wondering why you didn't go ahead and make that second one while you were at it!) -- back to the kitchen. These things ARE addictive. You've been warned!

GRILLED GRUYERE SANDWICH WITH ONION JAM



Grilled Gruyere Sandwich with Onion Jam image

Nutty gruyere is complemented by piquant Dijon mustard and sweet onion jam in this elevated grilled cheese.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Lunch Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 (1/2-inch-thick) slices seeded rye bread
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup onion jam or chutney
6 ounces Gruyere cheese, shredded (2 cups)

Steps:

  • Arrange bread in a single layer on a clean work surface. Stir together butter and mayonnaise. Spread mixture evenly onto one side of every slice (1 scant tablespoon per slice).
  • Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium. Flip over bread on work surface (so it's plain-side up). Spread Dijon evenly onto 4 slices. Spread onion jam onto remaining 4 slices and top evenly with cheese. Carefully sandwich together.
  • Place sandwiches in skillet (in two batches, if needed). Reduce heat to medium-low; gently top sandwiches with a lid slightly smaller than skillet for even cooking. Cook, flipping once halfway through, until crisp and golden on both sides and cheese is melted, 7 to 9 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality lamb that is well-marbled.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the lamb and green onions in a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Be sure to let the lamb rest for a few minutes before slicing it, so that the juices can redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the sandwiches with your favorite toppings, such as tzatziki sauce, feta cheese, or tomatoes.
  • Make sure to use fresh and high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.

Conclusion:

These grilled lamb sandwiches with grilled green onions are a delicious and easy meal that are perfect for a summer cookout. The lamb is tender and flavorful, and the green onions add a nice smoky flavor. The sandwiches are also very portable, making them perfect for a picnic or a lunch on the go.
