Ingredients
2 Kaiser rolls, onion or poppy seed, sliced in half horizontally
1/4 cup basil puree or black olive tapenade
6 ounces thinly sliced turkey breast
2 ounces grated smoked mozzarella cheese
Softened butter
Directions
- Preheat a griddle or cast iron skillet. Spread each side of split roll with pesto or tapenade. Layer some turkey and cheese on one half of roll and top with other half.
- Add a couple of teaspoonfuls of butter to skillet and add roll. Top with aluminum foil, put heavy weight on top and cook the sandwich, weighted down, slowly for 4 to 5 minutes. Turn sandwich over, add a couple more teaspoonfuls of butter to skillet and cook weighted down until cheese has melted--another minute or so. Serve hot and eat with knife and fork. Serve with Fennel and Roasted Pepper Salad below.
