Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Slice ciabatta bread lengthwise and brush the insides with olive oil. Toast in a skillet for 3-4 minutes until golden brown.

  3. Layer grilled chicken or turkey on the aioli side, followed by fresh mozzarella or brie. Broil for 1-2 minutes until cheese is bubbly.
  4. Add roasted red bell peppers and arugula or spinach over the melted cheese. Scatter caramelized onions on top if desired.
