Method
Preparation of Broccoli Cream
Cook the Broccoli
In a pot of boiling salted water, blanch the broccoli florets for about 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender. Drain and set aside.
Blend the Broccoli Cream
In a blender, combine the blanched broccoli, heavy cream, garlic cloves, Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.
Cooking Sausage and Onions
Cook the Sausage
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage links and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and slice into rounds.
Assemble the Sandwich
Prepare the Ciabatta
Slice the ciabatta bread in half horizontally. If desired, toast the insides lightly in the skillet.
Layer the Ingredients
Spread a generous amount of broccoli cream on the bottom half of the ciabatta. Layer with sliced Italian sausage, caramelized onions, fresh mozzarella, and slices of tomato.
Finish with Balsamic Glaze
Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top of the tomato slices and place the other half of the ciabatta on top to close the sandwich.
Serving the Sandwich
Slice and Serve
