Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 4 tablespoons pesto sauce
- 4 slices ham slices
- 4 slices prosciutto slices
- 2 slices provolone cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 handful baby spinach
- 4 slices tomato slices
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
Spread 1 tablespoon of pesto sauce on one side of each slice of bread.
Place 2 slices of ham on one slice of bread, followed by 2 slices of prosciutto.
Add 1 slice of provolone cheese on top of the meat layers.
Layer a handful of baby spinach and 2 slices of tomato. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and black pepper for additional flavor.
Top with another slice of bread, pesto-side down, to complete the sandwich. Repeat for the second sandwich.
Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on the outer sides of each sandwich (1/2 tablespoon per side).
Place the sandwiches on the skillet and press gently with a spatula to help them toast evenly.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crisp, and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice them in half, and serve immediately.
