Ingredients

6 slices ciabatta (about 4 x 3 inches) ½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 3 slices (½ ounce each) prosciutto 1 medium tomato, sliced 6 large fresh basil leaves 3 ounces fresh mozzarella, sliced

Preparation

Preheat the Cuisinart® Griddler® Jr. in the closed position to medium while assembling panini. Lightly brush one side of each slice of bread with the olive oil. Lay 3 slices of bread on the work surface, oiled side down. Build the sandwiches in this order: prosciutto, tomato, basil, and cheese, using equal amounts of each item on each sandwich. Top with the remaining sliced bread, oiled side up. Arrange sandwiches evenly spaced on the bottom grill plate of the preheated Griddler® Jr. Close, applying medium pressure to handle for about 30 seconds. Grill panini for 3 to 4 minutes. Cut in half on the diagonal; serve warm.
