Ingredients

• 1 loaf soft French bread (12 ounces), split
• 1/3 cup store-bought pesto
• 8 ounces sliced roasted turkey
• 4 ounces sliced Swiss cheese
• 1/4 medium red onion, thinly sliced
• 3 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

1. Spread the bottom half of the loaf with the pesto. Top with the turkey, cheese, and onion. Sandwich with the top half of the loaf and cut into 4 pieces. Dividing evenly, brush the outside of the sandwiches with 1 tablespoon of the oil.
2. Heat a grill pan over medium heat and cook the sandwiches, pressing down occasionally, until the bread is crisp and the cheese has melted, 5 to 6 minutes per side.
