Grilled Cheese Sandwich With Prosciutto Fig Jam Fresh Mozzarella Recipes

GRILLED FRESH MOZZARELLA, PROSCIUTTO, AND FIG JAM SANDWICH

Steps:

• Split each roll, and layer with the mozzarella and prosciutto.
• Spread the top slices with the fig jam, then close up to form sandwiches.
• Lightly butter the outside of each sandwich.
• Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or panini press over med-high heat.
• Place the sandwiches in the pan, working in two batches depending on the size of the pan.
• Press the sandwiches or close the grill and brown, turning once or twice, until the bread is crisp and the cheese is melted; **you can press the sandwiches by weighting them with something heavy-such as a skillet or wide-bottomed saucepan.
• Though the rolls start off as round, once pressed they are considerably flatter and can easily be turned, if careful.
• Serve right away, cut on the diagonal.

PROSCIUTTO FIG GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Spread 2 slices of bread with fig jam and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella. Grind with fresh black pepper.
• Slice one fig and arrange on one of the mozzarella topped bread slices. Drape the other with Prosciutto and sandwich together.
• Heat half the butter and half the oil in a non-stick skillet. When foamy, add the sandwich to the pan and cook over medium-low heat, about 3 minutes until the bread is golden brown and cheese is oozing.
• Add the remaining butter and oil, then straight away lift the sandwich with a spatula and flip it over to cook the other side.
• Remove and slide onto a plate, cut in half and enjoy crispy and gooey.
