Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients needed for the sandwich and ensure the Italian deli meats are sliced thinly, the tomato is sliced, and the lettuce is washed and dried.

  2. 2

    Fry the Onions

    In a skillet, heat a small amount of olive oil over medium heat. Add the fried onions and sauté until crispy and golden brown. Set aside.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Take the Italian bread or ciabatta rolls and cut them horizontally. Layer the Italian deli meats evenly on the bottom half of the bread, followed by the provolone cheese, fried onions, lettuce, and sliced tomato.

  2. 4

    Grill the Sandwich

    Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the exterior of the assembled sandwich. Heat a grill or panini press over medium heat. Place the sandwich on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.

Serving

  1. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Once the sandwich is grilled to perfection, remove it from the heat, slice it in half, and serve immediately with your choice of dipping sauce or side.
