Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 oz Fresh mozzarella
- 4 slices Prosciutto
- 4 tbsp Fig jam
- 1 cup Fresh arugula
- 4 slices Rustic sourdough bread
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Olive oil
Instructions
Prepare all ingredients. Slice the fresh mozzarella into thin rounds and set them aside. Lay out the slices of sourdough bread.
Spread 1 tablespoon of fig jam on one side of each slice of bread.
On two of the bread slices (jam side up), layer fresh mozzarella slices, two slices of prosciutto, and a handful of arugula.
Top with the remaining slices of bread, jam side down, creating two complete sandwiches.
Spread a light layer of butter onto the outer sides of each sandwich (top and bottom) for grilling.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add a small drizzle of olive oil to enhance browning.
Place the sandwiches in the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even grilling, until the bread is golden brown and the mozzarella has melted.
Remove from the heat, slice each sandwich in half, and serve warm. Enjoy!
