Instructions

1

a) Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat (no oil). Once hot, add the chorizo and fry until it starts to brown, 3-4 mins. Remove the chorizo from the pan and set aside. Keep the pan for the next step.

b) While the chorizo fries, halve the ciabatta and grate the cheese.

c) Spread the sun-dried tomato paste over the lids and bases of your ciabatta.

2

a) Share the Cheddar and fried chorizo evenly between your ciabatta bases, then drizzle the honey over the fillings. Sandwich shut the 2 halves. TIP: If your honey has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.

b) Wipe out your frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, add the ciabatta, pressing down with a spatula or heavy-bottomed pan.

c) Cook, pressing occasionally, until the bread is golden and toasted and the cheese has melted, 2-4 mins each side.

3

a) Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount) and the rocket. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.

b) Once cooked, slice your panini diagonally and share between 2 serving plates.

c) Serve the dressed rocket with a drizzle of the balsamic glaze,  alongside your panini to finish.

Enjoy!
