Grilled Cheese Apricot And Jalapeno Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• In 8-inch skillet, cook bacon over medium-high heat until crisp. Remove from skillet to paper towel. Add chile to bacon drippings in skillet; cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes. Place chile on paper towel.
• Spread butter on both sides of each slice of bread. Top each of 4 bread slices with layer of cheese, chopped chile, 2 slices of bacon and another layer of cheese. Cover each with second slice of bread.
• Heat 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook sandwiches until bread is browned and cheese begins to melt. Turn sandwiches; cook until cheese is completely melted.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Toss the jalapenos with 1 tablespoon olive oil, some salt and pepper and lay skin-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the skin is blistered, 10 to15 minutes. Place in a plastic baggie for about 5 minutes loosen the skin. Pull off the skin, remove the majority of seeds and ribs, and slice. Set aside.
• Spread the mascarpone on 4 slices of bread and divide the Cheddar among the other 4 slices. Divide the sliced jalapenos among the 4 sandwiches. Close, and butter both sides of the bread.
• Heat half of the remaining oil on a flat griddle over medium heat. Grill one side of the sandwiches until golden. Remove, heat the remaining oil and repeat with the second side until golden and the insides are all melty and gooey.

Steps:

• Combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and pickled jalapeno in a small bowl. Set aside. Preheat skillet over medium heat.
• Slice each roll in half horizontally, then slice the rounded tops off the ciabatta rolls to make a flat top half. Spread 1 teaspoon butter on the doughy cut side of the bottom bun and 1 teaspoon butter on the now flattened top bun. Place half of the cream cheese mixture, half of the crushed chips, and half of the shredded cheese on the non-buttered side of the bottom bun. Place the top half of the bun on the sandwich and place the sandwich on the hot skillet. Repeat with the second sandwich.
• Grill until lightly browned and flip over, about 3 to 5 minutes; continue grilling until cheese is melted and the second side is golden brown.

Steps:

• Slice the lamb into 1/4-inch-thick slices and sprinkle with the sumac, salt and pepper. Place in a food storage bag or bowl and add a rosemary sprig and 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar. Set aside.
• Add the apricots, honey, mint, parsley, garlic, remaining tablespoon balsamic and leaves from the remaining 2 sprigs rosemary to a food processor. Turn on and stream in the oil. Add the jalapenos, a generous pinch of salt and fresh black pepper and pulse together until a relish texture is formed. Add 1/3 cup of the mix to the lamb for marinating. Seal and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to a day ahead. Keep the remaining relish refrigerated until ready to use.
• For the walnut and herb pesto: Add the walnuts, basil, mint, parsley, Parmesan, garlic, olive oil, walnut oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper to a food processor. Process until thoroughly combined. Adjust the seasoning and keep refrigerated until ready to use.
• Remove the lamb from the marinade and let come to room temperature before cooking.
• Preheat a charcoal or gas grill to high. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the marinated lamb slices to the grill and cook, 1 to 2 minutes on each side.
• You can wait for the lamb to cool, then assemble the sandwiches, or you can make ahead of time, then refrigerate, and build the sandwiches when the lamb is cold.
• Sliced the bread pieces in half horizontally and toast in the oven just until the cut sides are crispy, about 3 minutes.
• Drizzle the lightly toasted bread with olive oil. Evenly spread the pesto and the reserved relish on the cut sides of the bread. Layer the lamb on the bottom piece of each sandwich. Top with some arugula and red onion. Lightly drizzle each with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place the other half of the bread on top of each sandwich. Wrap each sandwich in waxed or parchment paper and pack for a picnic.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over low heat. Spread butter or margarine onto one side of two slices of bread. Place both pieces buttered side down in the skillet. Lay a slice of cheese on each one, and top with slices of tomato, onion and jalapeno. Butter one side of the remaining slices of bread, and place on top buttered side up. When the bottom of the sandwiches are toasted, flip and fry until brown on the other side.
