Print Recipe

Ingredients
  • soft butter .
  • 8 oz prosciutto, thinly sliced .
  • 1/4-1/2 c fig jam or fig preserves, to taste .
  • 10-12 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, thickly sliced (make sure to use fresh) .
  • 4 soft French rolls or Italian rolls

Directions
  • Step #1 Split each roll, & layer with the mozzarella & prosciutto.
  • Step #2 Spread the top slices with the fig jam, then close up to form sandwiches.
  • Step #3 Lightly butter the outside of each sandwich.
  • Step #4 Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or panini press over med-high heat.
  • Step #5 Place the sandwiches in the pan, working in two batches depending on the size of the pan.
  • Step #6 Press the sandwiches or close the grill & brown, turning once or twice, until the bread is crisp & the cheese is melted; **you can press the sandwiches by weighting them with something heavy—such as a skillet or wide-bottomed saucepan.
  • Step #7 Though the rolls start off as round, once pressed they are considerably flatter & can easily be turned, if careful.
  • Step #8 Serve right away, cut on the diagonal.
