Toasted Artichoke Sandwiches Recipes

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute the artichokes, pepper and onion in oil until tender; stir in cheese. Remove from the heat., In a food processor, combine mayonnaise and tomatoes; cover and process until finely chopped., Spread four bread slices with half of the mayonnaise mixture; layer with a spinach leaf, artichoke mixture and remaining spinach. Spread remaining bread with mayonnaise mixture; place on top. Butter outsides of sandwiches., On a griddle, toast sandwiches for 2-3 minutes on each side or until bread is lightly browned.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lop off stem end of the head of garlic. Pour the olive oil over the exposed cloves, sprinkle with salt and pepper and wrap loosely in foil. Bake until soft and slightly caramelized, about 20 minutes. Let cool, squeeze out the garlic cloves and set aside. Once cool, using your knife, chop into a paste.
• Mix together the roasted garlic, ricotta, basil, romano and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Gently add the artichokes to the grill pan and grill until properly charred, 4 to 5 minutes a side, then set aside.
• Meanwhile, lightly toast the baguette, about 5 minutes.
• For the sandwich build: Split the toasted baguette in half and schmear each half with the ricotta spread. Then pile on the grilled artichokes. Next, add the toasted pine nuts and finally the red leaf lettuce. Cut to serve your family and friends and enjoy with a side of Tony Bennett perhaps.

Steps:

• Combine half of the onion, the vinegar and a pinch of salt in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until hot; set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining onion and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add the artichokes and heat through, 4 minutes. Stir in half of the spinach and cook until wilted, 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the asiago, goat cheese, mayonnaise and the remaining spinach.
• Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Sandwich the spinach-artichoke mixture between the bread slices. Brush the sandwiches with olive oil and add to the grill pan. Grill 3 minutes per side. Let rest 2 minutes; cut in half.
• Drain the reserved onion. Drizzle with olive oil, then add the tomatoes, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste; toss. Serve with the sandwiches.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Lightly spread pesto on one side of each bread slice.
• Top slices with prosciutto, artichoke slices, red pepper strips, and chicken strips.
• Place sandwiches on a large foil lined cookie sheet.
• Cover loosely with foil.
• Bake about 8 minutes or till nearly heated through.
• Uncover sandwiches and sprinkle with cheese.
• Bake 4 to 5 minutes more or till cheese melts.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the Gouda, salami, and artichoke hearts. Divide the mixture between 2 slices of bread, spreading evenly to cover bread. Top with remaining bread slices and gently press together to seal in filling.
• In skillet, melt 1 T. butter over medium heat. Cook sandwiches for 1 minute or until golden. Remove and add 1 T. butter.
• Flip sandwiches and cook for 1 minute more, or until golden, pressing with spaulta slightly.
• Remove sandwiches and cut each into 4 sticks.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. Add the spinach to the boiling water and blanch for 10 to 20 seconds. Transfer to the ice water to cool for a few minutes, then drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop coarsely.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat, and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds, and stir in the artichoke hearts. Stir for a few minutes, until the artichoke hearts are beginning to color, and add the thyme leaves and the spinach. Toss together and season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
• Preheat a panini grill. Top four of the bread slices with the artichoke hearts and spinach. Add strips of roasted pepper, then cheese. Top with the remaining bread and press together. Brush the outside of the bread (top and bottom slices) with olive oil. Place in the panini maker and grill for four to five minutes, until the cheese has melted and the bread is toasty. Slice in half and serve hot.

Steps:

• To make the cabbage slaw, combine the purple cabbage with 1 tablespoon of the jalapeño ranch and all the lime juice in a mixing bowl. Set aside in the fridge while you prepare the fried artichokes.
• To make the fried artichokes, in a deep fryer or in a large heavy- bottom pot with a thermometer attached heat the fryer oil to 360°F. If using a pot, it should be around a third full of oil. Set aside a large baking sheet with a wire rack on top to place the fried artichokes on. Do not rest them on paper towels as they will become soggy.
• Drain the artichoke hearts from the can or jar and cut them in half if they're whole. Gently squeeze out any excess water from the artichoke pieces by patting between paper towels or with a clean tea towel so that the artichokes aren't super wet.
• To a large mixing bowl, add ½ cup of the gluten-free flour. In another large mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining ¾ cup of the flour, the cornstarch, sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne.
• Once the oil is to temperature, add 1 cup of the club soda to the flour mixture to start and gently whisk until combined. Add more club soda as needed to ensure the batter is loose enough to dip and dredge the artichokes but thick enough that it sticks and doesn't run right off too much. (The amount of liquid varies, as I find gluten-free flours to have varying hydration levels.) Use one hand to coat 4 or 5 artichoke halves in the flour dredge and then coat one piece at a time in the liquid batter. Lift each piece from the batter and let the excess drip off. Quickly place the battered artichokes directly in the hot oil and fry the first batch for 4 to 6 minutes, until crispy and golden brown.
• Use a slotted spoon or a pair of tongs to place the artichokes onto the wire rack, and continue frying in batches.
• To make the sandwiches, lightly toast the buns. Spread the remain- ing jalapeño ranch on the inside of the top and bottom buns. Add the purple cabbage slaw to the bottom bun and top with pickles, 4 or 5 fried artichoke pieces, and the top bun.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the artichokes, mayonnaise, onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, and cayenne. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide mixture evenly among 10 slices of bread, top each with remaining bread slices and cut off crusts with a serrated edge knife. Cut each sandwich diagonally to create two triangles.
• Transfer to a platter and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight to soften before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for low heat.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Place the artichokes into the boiling water, and season with salt and pepper. Throw in half of the garlic, and half of the shallot. Boil for about 30 minutes, or until a fork is easily inserted into the stem of the artichokes. Drain and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat, and stir in the remaining garlic and shallot. Cook just until fragrant, then remove from the heat.
• Place the artichoke halves onto the preheated grill. Brush some of the melted butter onto them. Cook for 5 to 10 minutes, brushing with butter occasionally, until lightly toasted. Serve with remaining butter as a dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat (such as Silpat®).
• Cut bread into 1/2-inch slices. Transfer onto the prepared sheet and brush very generously with melted butter until well soaked.
• Bake in the preheated oven until light golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool before topping. Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Add cream cheese, Gruyere, provolone, 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, garlic, green onion, pepper, salt, cayenne, nutmeg, spinach, and artichokes to a mixing bowl and mix until thoroughly combined.
• Use a spoon to top each piece of toast with at least a 1/2-inch thick layer of the cheese, artichoke, and spinach mixture. Grate some extra Parmigiano-Reggiano on top of each toast if desired.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the tops and bottoms are nicely browned, about 25 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
