Sausage Sandwich With Pesto Recipes

SAUSAGE SANDWICH WITH PESTO

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Put the sausages on a baking sheet, cut-side down, and grill for 5-6 mins or until cooked through, then set aside. Lay the ciabatta roll halves, cut-side up, on a baking tray and spread each with pesto. Top each half with a pepper and mozzarella slice, then grill for 2 mins or until golden and bubbling. Add the sausages and a handful of rocket, and put the roll back together, pressing down firmly to hold the fillings in place.

CREAMY PESTO PENNE WITH SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook penne at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain and transfer pasta to a bowl.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; add to pasta.
• Whisk pesto sauce mix, milk, and olive oil together in a small saucepan; bring to a boil while stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and keep at a simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes; pour over pasta and sausage mixture and toss to coat.

TOASTED PESTO-CHICKEN SAUSAGE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Cut sausages almost in half crosswise, then in half lengthwise. In 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Cook sausages in oil 5 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Remove from skillet; set aside.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, combine pesto and mayonnaise. Brush one side of bread slices with remaining 2 tablespoons oil. Turn 4 bread slices, oiled side down; spread each with pesto-mayonnaise.
• For each sandwich, top pesto-mayonnaise with 1 cheese slice, 2 tomato slices, 4 basil leaves, 1 cooked sausage and 1 bread slice, oiled side up. Heat same skillet or a griddle over medium-high heat. Cook sandwiches 3 to 5 minutes, turning once, until golden brown and cheese is melted.
