Ingredients

1 loaf ciabatta, halved horizontally and then crosswise 

1 small jar pesto 

Thinly sliced prosciutto 

Mozzarella and fontina cheeses, sliced 

1 small jar tapenade 

1 medium jar roasted red and yellow peppers 

Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Spread a ciabatta half with some pesto, and layer with prosciutto and mozzarella. Spread some tapenade on other half; layer with peppers and fontina. Cover with remaining bread.

Heat a griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Brush bread with oil. Place a sandwich in skillet; weigh down with another skillet. Cook until golden brown on first side, 3 to 4 minutes; flip, and cook until other side is golden and cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes more.

Transfer to a baking sheet; keep warm in oven while grilling other sandwich. Cut each half into pieces. Serve immediately.
