Directions


 



PREP



Divide the turkey into 4-ounce portions and divide the Provolone into 2-ounce portions. Wrap, refrigerate and reserve.


Mix the vegetables, seasonings and Parmesan together. Cover and reserve.




SERVICE



To order: heat the bread on the griddle, with the cut side down, until golden brown. Place a 4-ounce serving of turkey on the griddle; heat for about 1 minute, turn the turkey over and place 2 ounces Provolone on top of the turkey, allowing the cheese to melt. Place 1/2 cup vegetable mixture on the griddle and stir-fry with 1 teaspoon olive oil for about 1 minute.


When the cheese has almost melted, remove the bread from the griddle and place the turkey/cheese onto the bread. Add the heated vegetables. Cover with the top of the roll. Slice the sandwich on the diagonal. Garnish plate with fresh herbs.


May use seven-grain bread if the olive loaves or boules are not available.
