MILANESE SANDWICH

- 2 Italian or French rolls (each about 6 inches long), halved horizontally
- ½ ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, and sliced
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 generous pinch of salt
- 1 generous pinch of freshly ground black pepper
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- â…” cup arugula leaves
- 1 cooked Pork Milanese cutlet, warm or cold, cut into thin slices
Instructions:
This sandwich can be made with any meat prepared in the Milanese style —veal, chicken, or pork. You can use whatever ingredients you want, but the combination below tastes great.
- With your Fingers, remove and discard some of the soft inner bread from the rolls, creating a shallow well in each. Divide the avocado among all 4 pieces of bread.
- Using a fork, mash the avocado over the bread.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, vinegar, salt, and pepper to blend. Add the tomato and arugula and toss to coat. Divide the arugula mixture between the 2 bottom pieces of bread, add the sliced Pork Milanese, and cover with the top pieces of bread. Cut the sandwiches in half and serve.
