Prosciutto, Pesto & Sun-Dried Tomato Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
Your sandwich is crust around the corner. | 4 Servings
Did you know: The sandwich dates back to the 18th century and the OG sandwich maker John Montagu, the fourth Earl of Sandwich? Those noble beginnings set the stage for all the iterations of bread and fix-ins you know and love. This one in particular won’t disappoint: toasted sourdough bread is spread with pesto, then topped with prosciutto, mozz, and sun-dried tomatoes. Each gets perfectly melty on the stovetop before slicing and serving.

Cooking Steps
Finely chop sun-dried tomatoes. Spread half of the bread slices with pesto; place on a clean work surface, pesto sides up. Top with prosciutto, cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and remaining bread.
Heat 1 TBSP butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add sandwiches and cook until bread is golden and cheese melts, 4-6 minutes per side. (Work in batches if necessary, adding more butter if needed; lower heat if browning too quickly).
Cut each sandwich in half on a diagonal. Serve.

Review summary
Updated on Dec 2025- Flavor: Many loved the tasty combination, though some found the pesto overpowering; consider using less for a more balanced flavor 🍲.
- Ease of prep: Quick and simple to make, but shredded cheese was messy; sliced mozzarella would be easier to manage.
- Suggestions: Add fresh tomatoes for brightness, or try garlic herb butter on the outside for extra flavor.
- Portions: Several wished for more prosciutto; one thin slice per sandwich wasn't enough for most.
- Texture: Some found the sun-dried tomatoes chewy or tough; consider chopping them finely or cooking longer.
