Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich

  • 8 slices Ciabatta bread or any crusty bread of your choice
  • 8 slices Prosciutto thinly sliced
  • 4 oz Fresh mozzarella sliced
  • 1 cup Arugula washed and dried
  • 2 tbsp Balsamic glaze store-bought or homemade
  • 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil for drizzling
  • Salt to taste Sea salt
  • Pepper to taste Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
 

Assemble the Sandwich

  • Start by slicing the ciabatta bread horizontally. If the bread is not pre-sliced, use a sharp knife to cut it evenly to create two halves. This will ensure that the sandwich has a good structure.
  • On the bottom half of the ciabatta, layer 4 slices of prosciutto evenly. The prosciutto should be slightly overlapping to ensure every bite is flavorful.
  • Next, add the sliced fresh mozzarella on top of the prosciutto. The creaminess of the mozzarella complements the saltiness of the prosciutto.
  • Add a generous handful of arugula on top of the mozzarella. The peppery flavor of arugula adds a fresh contrast to the rich ingredients.
  • Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the arugula. This will add a sweet and tangy flavor that enhances the overall taste of the sandwich.
  • Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. This will elevate the flavors of the ingredients.
  • Finally, place the top half of the ciabatta on the sandwich. Press down gently to help the ingredients meld together.
  • Cut the sandwich into quarters or halves, depending on your preference, and serve immediately on a platter.

Notes

Feel free to customize the sandwich with additional ingredients like roasted red peppers or fresh basil for extra flavor.
