Plt Pancetta Lettuce And Tomato Panini Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the mustard and 1/4 cup water to a simmer. Whisk in the goat cheese until combined. Set aside; the mixture will thicken as it cools.
• Toast the mini bagels until golden brown and crispy. Set aside.
• In a medium nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of the olive oil over medium heat. Add 4 slices of the pancetta and cook until golden brown and crispy on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain the pancetta on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining pancetta.
• Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil in a small frying pan over medium-low heat. Crack 4 quail eggs into the pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining eggs.
• To build the PLT: Spread each bagel half with 1 tablespoon of the goat cheese sauce. Layer with a slice of pancetta, a slice of tomato, and some arugula. Top the whole thing with a fried quail egg and a grind of freshly ground black pepper. Serve.

Steps:

• In a large nonstick saute pan set over medium heat, cook the pancetta in batches until crispy, 3 to 4 minutes each side. Let drain on a paper towel and set aside.
• For the aioli: In a food processor, add in the garlic and pulse. This not only breaks down the garlic, but it seasons the bowl. Then add in the lemon juice, mustard, sugar and egg yolks. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Process until combined, about 10 seconds. Then slowly stream in the oil while the machine runs. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add in the Romano cheese and process for 10 more seconds. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more lemon juice, salt and pepper if necessary.
• For the sandwich build: Lightly toast the bread. Smear some aioli on each slice of bread. Top with 2 slices tomatoes, some avocado slices, 2 pieces of crisp romaine and 3 to 4 slices of crispy pancetta. Bite like a king.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• Spread the prosciutto slices on 2 rimmed baking sheets. Broil until crispy, 2 1/2 to 5 minutes per baking sheet. Set aside the prosciutto.
• Add the sliced bread to the same baking sheets and broil until golden brown, 30 to 45 seconds. Flip and broil the other side until golden brown. Remove and let cool.
• Add the sherry and honey to a medium bowl and whisk until smooth. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Add the arugula, basil and Pickled Onions. Toss until evenly coated.
• For each sandwich, line up 3 slices of toasted bread, then spread a thin layer of Garlic Aioli on each slice. Top 2 slices with crispy prosciutto, then add some Roasted Tomatoes and arugula salad. Place 1 of the built sandwiches on top of another. Top with the remaining piece of Aioli-dressed toast for a triple-decker club. Repeat the build until you have 4 massive PLTS (save the remaining roasted tomatoes for another use)! Slice in half--or don't; just take a bite.
• Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and let the salt and sugar dissolve, about 2 minutes. Add the sliced red onion. Turn off the heat and let sit until ready to use.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with foil. (For easy clean up!)
• Add the tomatoes, thyme, 1/4 cup of the olive oil and some salt and pepper to a large bowl. Toss to evenly coat. Spread the tomatoes on the prepared baking sheets.
• Put the head of garlic on a piece of foil, then drizzle with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and a sprinkle of salt. Seal the foil. Place the tomato pans and garlic in the oven and roast until the tomatoes are roasty and the garlic has become pure gold, 45 to 55 minutes. Allow to cool.
• Remove the garlic from the foil and squeeze the flesh into a small bowl. Add the mayonnaise and stir until combined.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the tempeh bacon in a single layer and fry until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side.
• While the tempeh cooks, toast the bread and spread each slice with the mayonnaise .
• Top 1 slice of toast with half of the lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, carrots, sprouts and tempeh bacon. Repeat with a second slice of toast. Stack the toasts and close the sandwich with the third slice of toast.
• Cut the sandwich into quarters and enjoy!

Steps:

• Before putting together sandwich, make a plate of arugula and sliced tomatoes and set aside with unsalted butter.
• Butter 1 side of each bread slice, then put 4 slices, buttered side down, on a work surface. Top the bread slices with the pancetta, distributing it evenly. Top each with a second slice of bread, buttered side up.
• Heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan until hot. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and top with a weight, such as another skillet. Cook until nicely browned, 2 to 3 minutes, then turn the sandwiches and replace the weight. Cook until the second side is well browned, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the sandwiches to a work surface and remove the top slice of bread from each sandwich. Spread the underside of those slices with the basil mayonnaise. Top the pancetta with the tomato slices, pepper to taste, and arugula leaves. Replace the top slice of bread, cut the sandwiches in half, and serve immediately.
• Take the roll of pancetta, and dice into about 1-inch cubes. Drizzle some olive oil into a saute pan on medium heat. Add pancetta to heated oil and cook until crispy. Pour the cooked cubes with fat, into a bowl and allow to cool.
• Place basil leaves in blender and puree until almost fine. Add mayonnaise to blender and season with freshly ground black pepper, to taste. Puree together until smooth.

Steps:

• Place the slices of pancetta about 1/2 inch apart from each other on a baking sheet. Cook them for about 20 minutes, until they're cooked through, but not crisp.
• Drizzle the olive oil over the tomato slices, and sprinkle them with salt. Allow them to sit for 5-10 minutes.
• To assemble the sandwiches: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the lemon aioli on one side of each slice of bread. Arrange the slices of pancetta on the bottom of the slices of bread, and place tomato slices over it. Arrange the arugula on top and cover with the top slice of bread. Spread the outer slices of bread with softened butter and grill in a panini machine, or brush with olive oil and grill on a charcoal or gas grill. Cut each sandwich in half on the diagonal.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Split the focaccia in half horizontally and place cut-side up on a baking sheet. Arrange the pancetta over the bottom piece of focaccia and brush with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Brush the top piece of focaccia with the remaining 3 tablespoons oil. Bake, using tongs to evenly redistribute the shrunken pancetta halfway through baking, until the pancetta is golden and the focaccia is golden brown, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stir together the basil, mayonnaise and lemon zest and juice in a small bowl.
• Transfer both pieces of focaccia to a cutting board. Top the pancetta with the tomatoes. Cut each burrata ball into quarters with a sharp knife and spread evenly over the tomatoes. Top with the lettuce. Spread the basil mayonnaise on the top piece of focaccia and place on the lettuce. Cut the PLT into 4 or 6 pieces.
