Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Basil Pesto, recipe follows
8 slices toasted bread
Marinated Chicken Breast, recipe follows
4 jarred roasted peppers, sliced into strips
2 cups packed fresh basil leaves
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup pine nuts
2/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup freshly grated Pecorino cheese
1 to 2 tablespoons vinegar, like cider, balsamic or red wine
2 to 3 teaspoons dried herbs, like thyme, oregano, rosemary or crumbled bay leaf
1 to 2 tablespoons mustard, whole grain or Dijon
1 to 2 teaspoon garlic or onion powder, optional
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast, each about 6 ounces

Steps:

  • Spread 1 tablespoon Basil Pesto on 1 side of each slice of bread. Top 4 slices of bread with Marinated Chicken Breast. Top the chicken with the roasted peppers. Place the remaining bread slices, pesto-side down, on top of the peppers.
  • Combine the basil, garlic and pine nuts in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add the 1/2 cup of the oil and process until fully incorporated and smooth. Season with salt and pepper. If freezing, transfer to an air-tight container and drizzle remaining oil over the top. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw and stir in cheese.
  • Put the vinegar, herbs, mustard, powder if using and oil in a large resealable plastic bag. Close the bag and shake to combine all the ingredients. Open the bag and drop in the chicken breasts. Close and shake the bag to coat evenly. Freeze for up to 2 weeks.
  • Thaw in the refrigerator overnight, under cold, running water, or in the microwave at 30 percent power for 1 minute at a time.
  • Heat a grill or grill pan. When the grill is hot, place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. You can also bake the thawed chicken in a 375 degree F oven for 15 minutes, or until cooked through.

ROASTED PEPPER AND GOAT CHEESE SANDWICH



Roasted Pepper and Goat Cheese Sandwich image

Travel sandwiches require good keeping properties. The ingredients have to hold up for hours at room temperature and can't be too moist, or the bread will become soggy and fall apart. In deference to fellow travelers, I choose fillings that taste great but aren't pungent. (Garlic aioli has a place in my life, but it's not within the confines of an airplane.)

Categories     dinner, for one, lunch, quick, sandwiches, main course

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 thick slices whole wheat country bread or 1 ciabatta roll, split
1 1/2 ounces goat cheese (about 1/3 cup), at room temperature
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh herbs, such as tarragon, parsley or chives
1/3 to 1/2 large grilled or roasted red pepper (see note)

Steps:

  • If using whole wheat bread, lightly toast it. This will prevent sandwich from becoming soggy. If using a roll with a hard crust, there is no need to toast.
  • In a bowl, mash goat cheese with a fork or spoon and stir in chopped herbs.
  • Spread equal amounts of goat cheese on each slice of bread or on both halves of roll. Top the bottom half with roasted pepper and cover with other slice of bread or half of roll. Cut in half if using bread, or into quarters if using a ciabatta roll. Wrap each piece tightly in plastic if transporting. The sandwich keeps well for 2 days.

GRILLED GOAT CHEESE, ROASTED PEPPER, AND GREENS SANDWICH



Grilled Goat Cheese, Roasted Pepper, and Greens Sandwich image

The title of this recipe was getting very long, so I left the last option - roasted artichoke hearts - out of it. I included them in my sandwich because I had some shriveling artichokes in my produce bin (along with the shriveling red pepper I used) and it didn't take very long to trim and roast them. But it's not a must; the peppers and goat cheese with the greens are what really stand out. I stir everything together and spread it on the bread. It's always a good idea to have a roasted pepper on hand for quick dinners like this.

Categories     dinner, lunch

Time 30m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 red pepper, roasted (you'll need only half of it for 1 sandwich)
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 trimmed artichoke heart, quartered if small, sliced about 1/2 inch thick if large and tossed with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil and salt and pepper to taste (optional)
1 tablespoon chopped blanched greens, such as beet greens, chard, or spinach
1 ounce goat cheese (about 1/4 cup)
2 slices whole-grain country bread
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic (optional)

Steps:

  • Dice roasted red pepper small and toss with salt, pepper and a teaspoon of olive oil. Measure out 1/4 cup, tightly packed.
  • If including artichoke hearts in the mix, preheat oven or toaster oven to 425 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with parchment and spread the artichoke hearts over the pan in a single layer. Roast for 10 minutes and turn over the pieces. Return to oven and roast for another 10 minutes, until browned and tender. Remove from heat and cut in small dice.
  • Mash goat cheese in a bowl and add peppers, chopped greens, and diced roasted artichoke hearts if using. Mash together.
  • If desired, rub 1 slice of bread with a cut clove of garlic, then purée garlic and stir into the goat cheese mixture. Spread goat cheese mixture over the bread. Top with the other slice of bread (rub it with garlic if desired) and press down firmly. Drizzle remaining olive oil over top slice of bread.
  • Toast in toaster oven 3 to 4 minutes, until cheese has melted. Remove from oven, press down firmly, cut in half and serve.

2 to 3 pepperoncini, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

  • For the spread: Combine the mayonnaise, roasted red peppers, lemon juice, pepperoncini and garlic in a small mixing bowl and whisk until combined. Season the spread with salt and pepper and set aside. For the sandwich: Scoop out the center of each bread half, creating a hollow space for all the ingredients. Spread the herbed goat cheese on both sides of the bread and then add the roasted red pepper and pepperoncini spread. On the bottom half of the bread, lay the slices of prosciutto, salami and top with the artichokes. Top with the arugula, drizzle with balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Place the top half of the bread on top and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Place the sandwich on a baking sheet and top with another baking sheet. Place a heavy pan (like cast iron) on the top baking sheet and store in the refrigerator, for at least 4 hours and up to overnight to allow the flavors to marry together. (If you can't fit 2 sheet trays in your refrigerator, just use the heaviest pan you have.) To serve, unwrap the sandwich and slice into 8 to 10 individual servings.;

Roasted Pepper Sandwich image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Lunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 small poblano pepper
2 8-inch flour tortillas
2 teaspoons mayonnaise
1/2 small tomato, thinly sliced
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
8 thin slices Monterey Jack cheese (1/8-inch-thick)

Steps:

  • Place pepper over high heat on a gas burner. Just as each section turns puffy and black, turn he pepper with tongs to prevent overcooking. (If you don't have a gas stove, place the pepper on a baking pan, and broil in the oven, turning as each side becomes charred.) Transfer pepper to a paper towel and wrap in towel to enclose. Let the pepper sweat until cool enough to handle, about 5 minutes. Rub off and discard blackened skin. Cut pepper in half and remove and discard seeds. Cut pepper into 1-inch-wide strips.
  • Place tortillas, one at a time, over medium heat on a gas burner. Cook until edges are beginning to blacken, about 30 seconds. Turn and cook until edges of second side begin to blacken, about 20 seconds more.
  • Spread mayonnaise evenly over one tortilla. Top with pepper, and tomato. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange cheese over tomato. Cover with second tortilla. Cut into wedges, and serve immediately.

GRILLED PORTOBELLO SANDWICH WITH ROASTED RED PEPPER AND MOZZARELLA



Grilled Portobello Sandwich with Roasted Red Pepper and Mozzarella image

WEB PHOTO I just adore Portobello Mushrooms and Mozzarella Cheese. The grill (charcoal not gas) gives it such a wonderful taste. Splurge a little and used soaked mesquite chips with this one. Out of this world!!

Provided by CONNIE BOLDA

Categories     Roasts

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 large red bell pepper
salt & pepper to taste
1/2 c olive oil
4 large portobella mushroom caps, cleaned
4 slice vidalia onion (or other sweet onion)
4 large sesame rolls (kaiser are good)
4 tsp mayonnaise
1 Tbsp roasted garlic (mashed like a paste)
4 slice mozzarella
4 slice tomato
16 fresh basil leaves, divided

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • 2. Place the red bell pepper onto the preheated grill, and grill until the skin is completely charred on all sides, 10 to 15 minutes. Place the pepper into a paper bag, seal the bag, and let the pepper cool. When cooled, remove the charred skin, slice the pepper into quarters, and remove the seeds. Thinly slice the pepper and set aside.
  • 3. Mix salt and pepper into the olive oil in a small bowl. Brush the smooth side of the mushrooms with the seasoned oil, and grill, oiled side down, until the mushrooms show grill marks, about 3 minutes. Brush the gill sides of the mushrooms with more seasoned olive oil, flip the mushrooms, and grill until the mushrooms are softened and juicy, about 3 more minutes. Set the mushrooms aside and keep warm.
  • 4. Lightly grill the slices of onion until softened and lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Spread the rolls out onto the grill to toast, about 1 minute. Mix the mayonnaise and roasted garlic in a bowl.
  • 5. Spread each roll with garlic mayonnaise, and make each sandwich with 1 mushroom cap, 1 ounce sliced mozzarella cheese, 1 slice of tomato, 4 basil leaves, 1 slice of grilled onion, and 1/4 the roasted red pepper slices. Repeat for remaining sandwiches.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and flavorful bell peppers for the best taste. Different colors of bell peppers can add visual appeal and variety to your sandwich.
  • Roast the bell peppers until they are slightly charred and tender. This will enhance their flavor and make them easier to peel and slice.
  • Use a variety of cheeses to create a flavorful and gooey sandwich. Try using a combination of hard and soft cheeses, or a cheese blend that includes mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan.
  • Add other toppings to your sandwich to create a unique and satisfying meal. Consider adding sliced avocado, fresh spinach, arugula, or roasted tomatoes.
  • Serve the sandwich immediately while the cheese is still melted and gooey. You can also wrap the sandwich in parchment paper or aluminum foil and store it in the refrigerator for later.

Conclusion:

The roasted pepper sandwich is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With its combination of roasted peppers, cheese, and bread, this sandwich is sure to satisfy your taste buds. Experiment with different types of peppers, cheeses, and toppings to create a sandwich that is perfect for you.
