Cuban Sandwich

Cuban Sandwich

Yield: 4 sandwiches

A classic pressed sandwich stacked with roasted pork, ham, and melted Swiss, finished with pickles and a creamy mustard-mayo spread.

Ingredients

  • 4 Cuban bread rolls (or French/Italian bread)
  • 8 slices ham
  • 1 lb roasted pork, thinly sliced
  • 8 slices Swiss cheese
  • Dill pickle slices, thick-cut
  • 2 tablespoons yellow mustard
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • Butter, for grilling

Steps

  1. Mix the sauces together. Whisk yellow mustard and mayonnaise in a small bowl until smooth.
  2. Prep the bread. Split the Cuban rolls lengthwise and spread the mustard-mayo on both cut faces.
  3. Assemble. Pile roasted pork, ham, pickles, and Swiss on the bottom halves, then cap with the tops.
  4. Grill. Butter the outsides and cook on medium in a panini press or skillet, pressing down, until the crust crisps and the cheese melts. Turn as needed until both sides are golden. Serve hot.
