Makes 2 sandwiches
Ingredients
4 slices of Sourdough
4 slices of Prosciutto (available in our deli)
2oz Rock 'n Rolla Gorgonzola
1/2 cup grated Gruyere
4 tbsp Brennan's Fig Preserves
Softened Butter, as needed
Olive Oil, for frying prosciutto
Directions
Heat up a dash of oil over low-medium heat in a non-stick pan. Add in prosciutto and fry both sides until deep golden and crispy. Remove from pan.
Butter 1 side of each of your slices of bread. Flip two of them over so they are butter-side-down. On top of the slices, spread fig preserves then top with gorgonzola. Add 2 slices crispy prosciutto per sandwich then top with gruyere. Add the second slice of bread on top butter-side-up.
Add the sandwiches to the same pan you fried the prosciutto in, this time over medium heat. Fry both sides until deep golden & crispy, with the cheese just starting to leak out.
Serve and enjoy!
