Instructions

1
Slice a section from a loaf of Italian bread and then slice it in half lengthwise to create two pieces for the sandwich.
2
Heat a grill pan and drizzle with olive oil. Place the bread slices cut-side down on the pan.
3
Drizzle the top of the bread with more olive oil and grill until golden brown and toasted, using a grill press for even cooking.
4
Remove the bread and place the prosciutto slices on the hot grill pan. Cook until crispy, about 30-60 seconds per side.
5
To assemble, spread fig jam evenly on the inside of one slice of toasted bread.
6
Layer with caramelized onions, followed by a layer of crispy prosciutto.
7
Break apart the burrata cheese and spoon it over the prosciutto.
8
Add another layer of crispy prosciutto and caramelized onions.
9
Top with the second slice of bread, press down gently, and serve immediately.

Tips & Notes

Pro tips

Layer burrata last, off heat: place it on the warm bread after toasting so residual heat softens it without breaking down the delicate texture.
Use room-temperature burrata for the creamiest interior; cold cheese won't soften evenly.
Warm the fig spread and caramelized onions before assembling to ensure they distribute evenly and add heat to the sandwich.
Cook on medium heat with butter: high heat burns bread before the cheese melts; medium heat gives you a 2–3 minute window for a perfect golden crust.
