Pesto, Ham (Prosciutto) & Cheese Sandwich

Description

This delightful Pesto, Ham (Prosciutto), and Cheese Sandwich is a fantastic choice for a quick and satisfying lunch or snack. Perfectly blending the robust flavors of pesto, the rich saltiness of prosciutto, and the creamy texture of cheese, this sandwich promises a burst of flavor in every bite. For the best results, use high-quality Italian bread or a deliciously coarse homemade bread. Alternatively, French crusty rolls can also make a delectable base. Feel free to adjust the recipe quantities to make as many sandwiches as you need!

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons pesto sauce: Opt for a fresh, aromatic pesto to elevate the sandwich.
  • 2 slices ripe tomatoes: Juicy and flavorful, they add a refreshing touch.
  • 2 slices prosciutto: Thin, savory slices of Italian ham for a rich, salty contrast.
  • 2 slices cheese: Choose a cheese that melts well, like mozzarella or provolone, to add a creamy layer.
  • 1 leaf lettuce: Adds a crisp texture and a fresh crunch.
  • 2 slices of Italian bread or French rolls: For the best sandwich base, select a high-quality bread with a good texture.

Instructions

  1. Spread the Pesto: Begin by spreading one tablespoon of pesto sauce on one side of each slice of bread. This aromatic spread will infuse each bite with delightful flavor.

  2. Layer the Ingredients: On top of the pesto-coated side of one slice of bread, layer the slices of tomato, prosciutto, and cheese. Ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed to create a balanced taste.

  3. Assemble the Sandwich: Place the leaf of lettuce over the cheese, then cover it with the second slice of bread, pesto side down. Press gently to combine all layers.

  4. Serve: Cut the sandwich diagonally or into halves, depending on your preference, and serve immediately to enjoy the freshest taste.
