1

Layer fresh mozzarella, tomato slices, and basil leaves on the bottom half of each ciabatta roll. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil.

2

Close the sandwiches and brush the outside of the bread lightly with olive oil.

3

Press in a panini press or grill pan over medium heat for 3 minutes per side until the bread is golden and crispy and the cheese is melting.

Tip: If using a grill pan, press down with a heavy pot or foil-wrapped brick for the panini effect.

Slice in half and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Serve immediately.
