Description
This is an amazing, sophisticated focaccia grilled cheese sandwich made with homemade focaccia bread, prosciutto and smoked mozzarella. Italian sandwich heaven!
Ingredients
- 2 slices Focaccia Bread (see Related Post Or TK Recipe Box For The Recipe, Or Use Store Bought)
- 2 Tablespoons Basil Pesto Sauce (use Your Favorite Homemade Recipe Or Store Bought Brand)
- ¼ pounds Thinly Sliced Prosciutto
- 3 slices Smoked Mozzarella
- 1 Tablespoon Butter, For Greasing The Griddle
Preparation
Preheat an electric griddle to 350ºF or heat a sturdy skillet over medium high heat. A greased panini press would also work well here. Form grilled cheese sandwich by smearing 1 tablespoon of pesto onto each slice of focaccia. Layer prosciutto on top of pesto on one slice, then mozzarella next. Close the sandwich with the other slice, pesto-side down.
Melt butter either on the griddle or in the skillet and put sandwich on it to brown on first side for about 2 minutes. Press it down firmly while it browns to help it all melt together. Then flip it over to do the same on the second side, making sure mozzarella completely gets melted.
Plate sandwich and cut it in half. Serve immediately for an amazing and easy lunch or dinner with salad or soup!
