Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the 1 loaf of ciabatta in half lengthwise. Drizzle the cut sides with 1 tbsp olive oil and toast in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden and crisp, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Spread 0.25 cup pesto evenly over both toasted cut sides of the bread.

  3. Step 3

    Coarsely chop 0.25 cup pistachios and sprinkle them over the pesto, pressing lightly so they stick.

  4. Step 4

    Layer 4 oz prosciutto over the bottom half of the bread, folding it to fit evenly.

  5. Step 5

    Close the sandwich with the top half, press gently, then slice into 2-4 pieces and serve immediately.
