Provided by Molly Yeh

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups loosely packed fresh basil leaves
1 cup fresh parsley leaves
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic, crushed and peeled
Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
1 Calabrian chile
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
8 tablespoons good-quality salted butter, softened
One 16- to 18-inch baguette, split and warmed
6 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
1/4 peeled and seeded ripe cantaloupe, very thinly sliced (a vegetable peeler works well)

Steps:

  • For the basil drizzle: Combine the basil, parsley, salt, red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon juice and chile in a mini food processor and pulse to make a chunky paste. Add the olive oil and process until smooth and bright green.
  • For the prosciutto, cantaloupe and butter sandwich: Spread the butter on both cut sides of the baguette. Drizzle the bottom piece with a tablespoon or so of the basil drizzle. Layer the prosciutto and cantaloupe on the bottom piece of the baguette, ruffling and folding the prosciutto as you go. Drizzle a tablespoon of the basil drizzle over the top. Drizzle the cut side of the top piece with 1/4 cup or so of the basil drizzle. Place the top piece of baguette on the prosciutto and cantaloupe and cut into 2 sandwiches using a serrated knife. Serve the extra basil drizzle on the side or reserve for another use.

I'm allergic to cantaloupe, so I used honeydew melon instead. It was still really good!

I'm not a big fan of cantaloupe, but I really enjoyed this sandwich. The prosciutto and butter balanced out the sweetness of the cantaloupe perfectly.

This sandwich is a delightful explosion of flavors! The salty prosciutto, sweet cantaloupe, and creamy butter are perfectly balanced by the tangy basil drizzle. The combination of textures is also spot-on, with the crispy prosciutto contrasting the s
