Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Ciabatta bread
- 2 slices Prosciutto
- 1 large Egg
- 1 slice Swiss cheese
- 0.5 cup Baby spinach
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Heat a small non-stick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Crack the egg into a bowl, add salt and black pepper, and whisk until combined.
Pour the egg into the pan and cook it as a thin omelette for about 2 minutes, flipping halfway. Set aside.
Preheat a panini press or heat a grill pan over medium heat.
Lightly butter one side of each slice of ciabatta bread.
Assemble the panini by layering the prosciutto, cooked egg, Swiss cheese, and baby spinach on the unbuttered side of one bread slice. Place the other slice on top, buttered side facing out.
Place the sandwich in the panini press or on the grill pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. If using a grill pan, press the sandwich with a heavy skillet to flatten it.
Remove the panini from the heat and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half and serving.
