Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound sweet Italian sausage, casing removed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
4 ciabatta rolls, halved horizontally with some of the insides scooped out
1 cup jarred marinara sauce
1 pound fresh mozzarella, torn into slices
8 large thinly-sliced pepperoni, such as Applegate
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil and the sausage and cook, breaking apart the sausage with a wooden spoon, about 5 minutes. Add the salt, red pepper and onion and cook, stirring often, until the peppers and onions are soft and the sausage begins to brown, about another 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Divide 1/4 cup marinara sauce between each half of one of the ciabatta rolls and top with a quarter of the mozzarella slices over the sauce. Place 2 slices of the pepperoni on the top half and fill the bottom half with a quarter of the sausage mixture. Sprinkle the sausage with 1/4 cup of the Parmesan. Sandwich together and continue with the remaining ingredients.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil and 2 of the sandwiches top-side down to the skillet. Place a small pan on top and press down gently to flatten slightly. Cook until golden brown and crispy, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and return the pan to the top, again pressing gently. Cook until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted, about 3 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons oil to the skillet and continue with the remaining sandwiches. Allow the sandwiches to cool to room temperature and then chill them in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • Before serving, slice the sandwiches into wedges like you would a pizza.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread, such as sourdough or ciabatta, will hold up well to the fillings and won't get soggy.
  • Don't overload the sandwich: Too many fillings will make the sandwich difficult to eat and may cause the bread to tear.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will taste.
  • Season the sandwich to taste: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, or other spices to taste.
  • Cook the sandwich until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown: This will ensure that the sandwich is cooked through and delicious.

Pizza paninis are a quick and easy meal that can be customized to your liking. With endless possibilities for fillings and toppings, you're sure to find a combination that you'll love. So next time you're looking for a tasty and satisfying meal, give pizza paninis a try.
