Ingredients

Sun Dried Tomato Pesto (see notes)

  • 1 1/2 cups / 180g Sun Dried Tomatoes, drained (don't rinse!)
  • 1 packed cup / 30g / 1oz Fresh Basil
  • 1/2 cup / 120ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil, or as needed
  • 1/2 cup / 40g freshly grated Parmesan
  • 4 tbsp Pine Nuts, optionally toasted
  • 1 small clove of Garlic
  • 1/2 tsp Salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper, or to taste

Ciabatta Sandwich

  • 1x 14oz/400g loaf of Ciabatta, warmed in the oven (see notes)
  • 8 slices of Prosciutto
  • 8 slices of deli style Turkey
  • 10 slices of Salami
  • 5oz / 150g fresh Mozzarella, sliced (or as needed to cover sandwich)
  • 1/2 small head of Iceberg Lettuce, shredded
  • handful of Guindilla Chillies, finely sliced (or other deli/antipasto style brined chillies)


Instructions

  1. Into a food processor add sun dried tomatoes, basil, parmesan, pine nuts, garlic, salt and pepper. Turn on the motor and drizzle in the oil until your desired consistency.
  2. Slice the ciabatta right through the centre and spread the sun dried tomato pesto on the bottom slice. Don't feel like you have to use all the pesto.
  3. Add prosciutto, followed by turkey then salami, folding over the slices as needed. Add mozzarella, then pop under the grill and broil until melted (you can skip this step if you'd prefer it not melted).
  4. Add lettuce and chillies, then add the top slice of ciabatta. Slice into 6 then serve up and enjoy!
And as always have a chilled day from the Viking
