Grilled Spinach-Artichoke Sandwiches

Ingredients

  • 1 small red onion, quartered and thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • Kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing and drizzling
  • 1 14-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
  • 1 5-ounce package baby spinach (about 8 cups)
  • 1 cup grated asiago cheese (about 4 ounces)
  • 1/3 cup crumbled goat cheese (about 2 ounces)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 8 -inch-thick slices crusty bread
  • 2 cups quartered Campari or other small vine-ripened tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
  • Freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  1. Combine half of the onion, the vinegar and a pinch of salt in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until hot; set aside.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining onion and cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add the artichokes and heat through, 4 minutes. Stir in half of the spinach and cook until wilted, 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the asiago, goat cheese, mayonnaise and the remaining spinach.
  3. Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Sandwich the spinach-artichoke mixture between the bread slices. Brush the sandwiches with olive oil and add to the grill pan. Grill 3 minutes per side. Let rest 2 minutes; cut in half.
  4. Drain the reserved onion. Drizzle with olive oil, then add the tomatoes, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste; toss. Serve with the sandwiches.
