Ingredients

• 2 rolls ciabatta bread
• 6 slices roast beef
• 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon horseradish sauce
• 1 cup arugula
• 0.25 cup red onion
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a panini press or a non-stick grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and horseradish sauce until well combined.

Step 3

Slice the ciabatta rolls in half horizontally and spread the mayonnaise-horseradish mixture evenly on the cut side of each roll.

Step 5

Top each sandwich with a handful of arugula and a sprinkle of red onion slices.

Step 7

Lightly brush the outsides of the ciabatta rolls with olive oil, then spread a thin layer of butter for added crispiness.

Step 8

Place the sandwiches in the preheated panini press or grill pan. If using a grill pan, press down with a heavy skillet to create even pressure.
