Worthy of a Special Occasion

This recipe yields more sandwiches than you'll need, but you'll be glad for the leftovers. Wrap the two extra sandwich wedges in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for up to one day. Remember to pat the focaccia dough out into a larger, thinner circle so the bread won't be too thick.

Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 wedge)

Ingredients

  • 1/4  cup  chopped drained oil-packed sun-dried tomato halves
  • 1  garlic clove
  • 1/2  (14-ounce) can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
  • loaf Pumpkin-Walnut Focaccia with Gruyère, cut in half horizontally
  • 4  ounces  chopped roasted skinless, boneless rotisserie chicken breast
  • 4  ounces  thinly sliced 33%-less-sodium ham (about 1/8 inch thick)
  • 2  cups  trimmed arugula

Preparation

Combine first 3 ingredients in a food processor; process until smooth. Spread mixture on bottom half of Pumpkin-Walnut Focaccia with Gruyère; top with chicken, ham, and arugula. Place top half of bread on sandwich. Cut sandwich into 6 wedges.

This is a great recipe and very easy. This could be used for everyday or for special occasions and makes enough for guests. For the spread, I added about 1/4 cup plain yogurt and a tsp of pepper. We also had proscuitto on hand and used it in place of the ham and added a piece of swiss cheese. Served with a salad.04/18/06

I wasn't sure about this combo of flavors, but it was really good!! I roasted my own chicken and used leftovers from the ham I cooked earlier in the week. No arugula at the supermarket, so I used romaine. I would make this again for something different!10/16/05
