Garlic oil gives these sandwiches a crisp, flavorful crust. Hawaiian rolls provide a slightly sweet contrast to the salty ham, pickles, and mustard. To make this easy supper even quicker to prepare, use precooked bacon. Serve with banana peppers. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon extravirgin olive oil |
1 garlic clove, minced |
4 (3-ounce) hawaiian rolls, sliced in half horizontally |
2 tablespoons yellow mustard |
8 (1/2-ounce) slices reduced-fat swiss cheese, divided |
4 bacon slices, cooked and halved |
12 dill pickle slices |
2 teaspoons minced fresh cilantro |
6 ounces thinly sliced 33%-less-sodium ham |
2 ounces thinly sliced deli roasted turkey breast |
Directions:
1. Combine oil and garlic.
2. Spread cut sides of rolls evenly with mustard. Place 1 cheese slice, 2 bacon halves, 3 pickle slices, and 1/2 teaspoon cilantro on bottom half of each roll. Divide ham and turkey evenly among bottom halves of rolls; top each serving with 1 cheese slice and top half of roll. Brush garlic oil evenly over outside of rolls.
3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 sandwiches to pan. Place a cast-iron or heavy skillet on top of sandwiches, and press gently to flatten. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until cheese melts and bread is toasted (leave cast-iron skillet on sandwiches while they cook). Repeat with remaining sandwiches.
