This Toasted Ciabatta Sandwich With Artichokes and Bacon makes the most delicious weekend brunch imaginable. Artichokes and bacon should be best friends forever. You’ve got to try this sandwich – you’ll never look back!
Ingredients
- 4 lices bread any kind
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or use butter instead
- 4 lices cheese any, but make sure it’s tasty!
- 3.5 ounces Bacon I used 4 slices
- 5 ounces Artichoke chopped, in oil or brine (I used about half a 275 gram jar
- onion relish optional
Instructions
- Pre-heat a sandwich press or grill / frying pan.
- Cook the bacon for 5 to 10 minutes or until starting to crisp (either on the sandwich press or grill / frying pan you're going to use to cook your sandwich).
- Drizzle the olive oil over the bread and spread a little with a knife (alternatively, spread with butter).
- Turn the slices of bread over so the olive oiled side is facing down, then spread with a little onion relish (if using, but highly recommended!).
- Top with 1 slice of cheese, the bacon, artichokes, and finally another slice of cheese.
- Top with the other 2 slices of bread (oiled side up) and cook until the cheese has melted and the top of the sandwich is nicely browned.
Notes
- Amounts are only guestimates, of course. Throw as much of the yummy ingredients on your sandwich as possible!
