Panini capresi

Filed under: — Aprille @ 6:27 pm

This is something I invented.  It’s pretty much a caprese salad on bread, grilled on the panini maker.  This time I put some prosciutto on there because I had it, but you can also use leftover chicken.

The salad was sliced garden tomatoes, roughly chopped basil, some of those cute little fresh mozzarella pearls, a little extra virgin olive oil, a splash of red wine vinegar, S&P.  I put the prosciutto on a nice big slices of sourdough bread, topped with the salad, put another piece of bread on top, and grilled them up until they were crispy and the cheese was melted.

The best part was that I didn’t use all the salad in the sandwiches.  I meant to save it for lunch the next day, but what I actually did was eat it while cleaning up the dishes.
