The Italian Love Sammich image

The other day I had a sammich similar to this for lunch. I couldn't get over how good it was! So yesterday for Valentine's Day, I decided to recreate it in my kitchen for my honey. (Hence the "love" in the name) Dan really liked it so I decided to share it with the world. If you decide to try this sammich, I BEG you, don't use the "convenience food" stuff. This is a gourmet sammich and if you do not use the fresh ingredients, you will not get the full effect of the flavors.

Time 24m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 ounces focaccia bread, sliced in half lengthwise (I used roasted garlic and onion flavor)
3 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
5 ounces very thinly sliced prosciutto
2 roma tomatoes
6 big fresh basil leaves
red wine vinegar
olive oil (the best you can afford)

Steps:

  • Take the slices of focaccia and toast them slightly in a 375 degree oven; about 5 minutes.
  • While the bread is toasting, slice your tomatoes and mozzerella, you want thin slices.
  • Remove the bread from the oven.
  • Top one side with slices of proscuitto, cheese, tomato and finally basil leaves.
  • Sprinkle a tiny bit of red wine vinegar and olive oil and the other piece of bread, on the side that will be facing towards the toppings; just a little bit, you don't want it soggy.
  • Put both slices together and with your hands (or a brush), rub a bit of olive oil on the outside of each slice.
  • Place on a hot grill for about 2 minutes on each side.
  • I used my George Foreman grill for that step and it worked FABULOUSLY!
  • Remove from the grill, wrap in foil and place in the oven (still at 375) for about 7 minutes.
  • Remove, unwrap, slice in half and enjoy.
  • Suggested sides: a really good pickle spear, olive salad, gourmet chips, a leafy green salad or whatever you enjoy with your favorite sammich.

I'm not a big fan of sandwiches, but this one is really good. The bread is soft and fluffy, the cheese is gooey and melted, and the roasted peppers add a nice smoky flavor.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover roasted peppers. I always have a few extra peppers after I make a batch of roasted vegetables, and this sandwich is the perfect way to use them up.

This sandwich was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use some more seasoning.

I tried this recipe and it was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think next time I'll use less roasted peppers.
