Prosciutto and Pesto Panini image

This prosciutto and pesto panini is an easy recipe to make for lunch or a light dinner.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

One 10-ounce loaf ciabatta, halved horizontally and soft interior removed
1/3 cup Pesto for Prosciutto Panini
Extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 pound Prosciutto de Parma, thinly sliced
Tapenade for Prosciutto and Pesto Panini, optional
1/4 pound fontina cheese, thinly sliced
1/2 cup baby arugula or basil, optional
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

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.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The fresher and better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will be. Look for ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and flavorful cheese.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to fillings and toppings. Try different combinations of meats, cheeses, vegetables, and condiments until you find a combination that you love.
  • Make it your own: The best part about making a prosciutto egg panini is that you can customize it to your own liking. Add your favorite toppings and make it as simple or complex as you like.
  • Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked eggs will be dry and rubbery.
  • Use a good quality bread: The bread is an important part of the sandwich, so make sure to use a good quality bread that will hold up to the fillings.
  • Grill the sandwich until golden brown: This will help to seal in the flavors and make the sandwich nice and crispy.

Conclusion:

The prosciutto egg panini is a delicious and easy-to-make sandwich that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is a great way to use up leftover prosciutto and eggs, and it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
