    Title: Turkey Cubano
    Categories: Poultry, Cheese, Pork, Chilies, Breads
    Yield: 3 servings

    4 tb Mayonnaise
    Hot sauce or mustard
    2 (12") soft hero rolls or
    - semolina loaves; halved
    Horizontally
    4 oz Cooked turkey; thin sliced
    8 sl Deli ham or prosciutto
    8 sl Swiss cheese
    1/2 c Sliced pepperoncini
    1 lg Dill pickle; sliced
    2 tb Unsalted butter; melted

    Place a rack in the center of the oven and another rack
    directly below it. Place a rimmed baking sheet on each
    rack. Once the pans are inside, heat oven to 350 degrees.

    In a small bowl, add the mayonnaise and stir in hot sauce
    or mustard to taste - it should have a kick. Spread
    mayonnaise mixture inside the rolls, coating both the top
    and bottom halves. Layer rolls with turkey, ham, cheese,
    pepperoncini (if using) and pickle slices.

    Using your hands, press the sandwiches down and make sure
    nothing slides out. (If it does, poke it back in.) Then,
    use a brush to butter the top and bottom halves of the
    rolls.

    Remove a hot baking sheet from the oven and place the
    sandwiches on top. Layer the other hot baking sheet on top
    of the sandwiches. Place a small pot cast-iron skillet or
    other heavy heatproof item on top of that second hot
    baking sheet to create a press.

    Carefully return to oven and bake until sandwiches are
    warm, toasted and golden brown and the cheese is melted, 8
    to 13 minutes. (You’ll have to lift off the second pan to
    check on the sandwiches.) Cut sandwiches in half and serve
    immediately.
