Prosciutto, Pear and Blue Cheese Sandwiches
When I made these, I only made one sandwich at a time and I amended the process somewhat.
Ingredients
8 slices 100% multigrain bread
1 tablespoon butter, softened
3 cups arugula
1 medium shallot, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
1 ripe pear, cored and thinly sliced
2 ounces blue cheese, sliced
Directions
- Preheat broiler.
- Melt butter in a pan large enough to hold two slices of bread. Grill for approximately three minutes or until one side is golden.
- Combine arugula and shallot in a medium bowl. Drizzle arugula mixture with oil and vinegar; sprinkle with pepper. Toss well to coat. Divide arugula mixture evenly among bread slices, buttered side down; top evenly with prosciutto. Divide pear slices and cheese evenly among sandwiches; top each sandwich with 1 bread slice, buttered side up.
