Directions
Nan’s Cuban Sandwich,This sandwich was created for a Culinary Quest Cuban challenge. I was inspired by two of my favorite sandwiches, the muffuletta and the Schotzky’s chain’s Original Sandwich. Each has a version of an olive salad used as a condiment on the sandwich. For this Cuban Sandwich, the olive salad is made with ingredients common in Cuban cuisine. I also made home made Cuban Bread rolls using Bonnie G’s recipe (posted on this site), which produces four delicious 6 – 8″ rolls.

Place the Sandwiches on the Panini Grill With the Griddle Plates in Place. Carefully Lower the Lid, Allowing the Hinge to Adjust So That the Lid Is Flat on the Sandwiches. Press, Making Sure the Sandwich Tops Are Staying in Place and the Lid Is Flattening the Sandwiches Without the Ingredients Being Squeezed Out the Sides. Cook For 8 Minutes, or Until the Bread Is Slightly Toasted and the Ingredients Are Warm. Note - If You Don't Have a Panini Grill You Can Cook Them on the Stove in a Heavy Bottomed Skillet Weighing Them Down to Flatten. You'll Have to Turn Them Mid-Way to Get the Other Side Toasted. |
