Ciabatta Deli Sandwiches With Peperoncini And Artichokes Recipes

Steps:

• Cut bread horizontally in half. Spread tapenade over bottom half of bread; top with lettuce. Layer onion, salami, cheese and tomatoes on lettuce. Add top of loaf.
• Cut sandwich into 16 pieces.

Steps:

• Mix artichoke hearts, peperoncini with juice from jar, onion, capers, oregano, and chili-garlic sauce in small bowl; season to taste with pepper.
• Arrange rolls, cut side up, on work surface; spread artichoke mixture over, dividing equally. Divide provolone cheese, then deli meats and arugula, between the bottom 2 halves. Cover with roll tops. Cut each sandwich diagonally in half and serve.

Steps:

• For the spread: Combine the mayonnaise, roasted red peppers, lemon juice, pepperoncini and garlic in a small mixing bowl and whisk until combined. Season the spread with salt and pepper and set aside. For the sandwich: Scoop out the center of each bread half, creating a hollow space for all the ingredients. Spread the herbed goat cheese on both sides of the bread and then add the roasted red pepper and pepperoncini spread. On the bottom half of the bread, lay the slices of prosciutto, salami and top with the artichokes. Top with the arugula, drizzle with balsamic vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Place the top half of the bread on top and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Place the sandwich on a baking sheet and top with another baking sheet. Place a heavy pan (like cast iron) on the top baking sheet and store in the refrigerator, for at least 4 hours and up to overnight to allow the flavors to marry together. (If you can't fit 2 sheet trays in your refrigerator, just use the heaviest pan you have.) To serve, unwrap the sandwich and slice into 8 to 10 individual servings.;

Steps:

• Spread desired amount of mayonnaise on each ciabatta's top and bottom.
• Layer the ciabatta bottoms with shredded lettuce, salt and peppered tomato slices, onion and pepper rings, mozzarella, basil leaves, the deli meats, and sliced olives. (NOTE: You can mix-up the order of these ingredients to your liking.)
• Drizzle with vinaigrette and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Cover with the ciabatta tops.
• Cut the ciabatta sandwiches in half on the diagonal and wrap in plastic wrap or waxed paper. Take a few books and set on top of the sandwiches to weigh them down and soak in the vinaigrette.
• Unwrap and enjoy!
• ITALIAN VINAIGRETTE: 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup vinegar, 1 tablespoon sugar, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/8 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
• Mix all ingredients in medium bowl with wire whisk until well blended. Cover. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Makes 6 (2-tablespoon) servings. Prep Time: 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
• Place sliced rolls on the prepared baking sheet (if the top half of roll rocks from side to side too much, slice a tiny bit of the top off). Place 1 slice of provolone on each slice of bread. Tear up the remaining slice of provolone to cover any open bread areas.
• Bake in the preheated oven until melted (not browned), about 8 minutes. Remove from oven; leave the oven on.
• Fold two pieces of turkey onto two slices of bread. Fold two pieces of ham onto the other slices of bread.
• Layer 2 slices of soppressata on top of the turkey. Fold 2 slices of prosciutto onto ham. Place four pepperoni pieces on top of each bread half.
• Sprinkle slices with some of the Parmesan cheese. Place back into the oven and let bake until pepperoni is looking crispy, about 12 minutes.
• While slices bake, make the grinder salad. Add mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and pepper flakes to a bowl. Whisk to combine.
• Add lettuce, onion, and pepperoncinis to the dressing. Toss to coat.
• Remove sandwiches from the oven. Top 2 of the ciabatta slices with tomato slices. Using tongs, place a layer of salad on top of the tomatoes. Sprinkle with more Parmesan cheese.
• Place the non-salad slices on top of the salad ones. Cut each sandwich in half and serve.
