Source of Recipe

List of Ingredients




2/3 cup extra-virgin Greek olive oil, divided use
1/2 cup Kalamata olives, chopped
1 tbsp oregano
1/2 tsp Kosher salt
1/2 tsp coarsely-ground black pepper
4 pita rolls, cut into half
2 large tomatoes, sliced into 1/2 inch slices
1/2 of a small cucumber, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch slices
1/2 of a small red onion, sliced into paper-thin slices
6 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
6 oz feta cheese, crumbled

Recipe



In a small mixing bowl, combine 1/3 cup olive oil, olives, oregano, salt and pepper. Stir and set aside.

Using remaining olive oil, Brush one side of each piece of bread with oil Place four slices on the work surface, oiled side down. Distribute the tomatoes, cucumber, onion, mozzarella cheese and feta cheese evenly over the bread. Drizzle reserved olive mixture evenly over the sandwiches. Place the remaining four slices of pita bread on top, oiled side up.

Preheat a large Teflon® coated non-stick skillet over medium heat for two minutes. Put the sandwiches in the skillet (in batches, if necessary), cover and cook for two minutes or until the undersides are golden brown and the cheese has begun to melt. Uncover, and turn the sandwiches with a spatula, pressing firmly to flatten them slightly. Cook for one minute, or until the undersides are golden brown. Turn the sandwiches again, press with the spatula, and cook for 30 seconds, or until the cheese has melted completely. Serve immediately. Makes 4 sandwiches.
