Preparing Tramezzini with Peppers using an oven
Step 1: Prepare the ingredients
- 4 slices of soft white bread (crusts removed)
- 2 bell peppers (red, yellow, or a mix), thinly sliced
- Olive oil for brushing and sautéing
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cheese of your choice (mozzarella, provolone, or cheddar work well)
- Optional additions: sliced tomatoes, lettuce, onions, pickles, mustard, or mayonnaise
Step 2: Sauté the peppers Heat some olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the sliced peppers, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Set aside to cool.
Step 3: Prepare the tramezzini Brush one side of each slice of bread with olive oil. On the other side of two slices, arrange the sautéed peppers and cheese. If you’re using any optional additions, add them on top of the peppers and cheese. Top with the remaining slices of bread, oiled side out.
Step 4: Grill the tramezzini Place the prepared tramezzini on a baking sheet and put another baking sheet on top to press them down. Bake in the oven at 180 degrees C (360 degrees F) for about 10-15 minutes or until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.
Note: The cooking time and temperature may vary depending on your oven.
Step 5: Serve These tramezzini are best served hot. You can cut each tramezzini in half and serve them as is, or with a side salad or soup.
About Tramezzini with Peppers
The star of this recipe is the pepper filling, which is sautéed to perfection before being layered with cheese and other ingredients between two slices of tramezzini bread. The assembled sandwich is then grilled on an indoor grill, resulting in a dish that’s crispy on the outside, and juicy and cheesy on the inside.
