Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3/4 lb cooked roast pork (very thinly sliced (see below))
  • 1 large onion (very thinly sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 medium ripe peaches (peeled and thinly sliced)
  • 12 thin slices sharp white cheddar cheese (5 to 6 ounces)
  • 12 slices firm white bread (e.g. sourdough)
  • 6 tablespoons butter (softened)

Instruction

  • Prepare the sautéed onions first. Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat and add the onion.
  • Sauté until lightly caramelized, 6 to 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Spread half of the butter on one side of 6 slices of bread and set aside. Top the other 6 slices with a slice of cheddar cheese and a portion of sautéed onions.
  • Follow with sliced pork, then peaches. Top each sandwich with another slice of cheddar and finish with the buttered slice of bread (butter side up).
  • Heat a grill pan over medium-high and brush the ridges with a bit of oil. Add 2 of the sandwiches (buttered side down), and press with a panini press. If you don't have a panini press, simply use the back of a large spatula and press down firmly on the sandwiches.
  • Cook until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown with nice grill marks, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Quickly butter the top slices of bread and flip the sandwiches over.
  • Press again and cook until the second side is toasted and the cheese is nicely melted, 2 to 4 minutes longer.
  • Keep warm while you repeat the process with the remaining 4 sandwiches.
  • Allow the sandwiches to rest for a few minutes before serving.
