OPEN-FACED FINGER SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Toast the bread. Trim the crusts. Halve the slices into 1 1/2-by-3-inch pieces.
• For the prosciutto and ricotta: In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta, olive oil, lemon zest and salt. Spread the mixture on 6 pieces of bread. Ribbon a piece of prosciutto on top and garnish with 2 arugula leaves.
• For the avocado: Place 2 slices of avocado on 6 pieces of bread. Sprinkle evenly with the quinoa, sea salt and chile flakes.
• For the smoked salmon: In a small bowl, mix together the creme fraiche and capers. Spread evenly over the remaining 6 pieces of bread. Ribbon a piece of salmon over the top and garnish with 1 or 2 batons of chive.

SUNNY'S OPEN-FACED GRILLED BLT

Steps:

• For the bread: Preheat the grill to 400 degrees F.
• Lay out the dough on a work surface and sprinkle with the olive oil, parsley, rosemary, garlic, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Fold it over itself and roll out or just press with your hands to make a square that could fit four slices of bread, because that's the goal. (You will eventually want to cut this into fourths to serve.) Place on the direct heat of the grill and cook until it releases from the grill and is slightly golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until done, 5 to 8 minutes.
• For the bacon: Mix the brown sugar, cayenne pepper, zest and a few grinds of black pepper in a bowl. Press the bacon into this mixture and place on a piece of nonstick aluminum foil on the grill. Cook, without flipping, until the bacon is crispy, 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the grill and roughly chop.
• For the tomatoes and lettuce: Brush the tomato slices and lettuce with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Place the tomatoes and lettuce directly on the grill and cook, flipping halfway through, until the tomatoes and lettuce are slightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Build the sandwiches: Mix the mayonnaise, honey, lemon juice and sriracha seasoning in a small bowl. Chop the grilled tomatoes and lettuce. Add the chopped tomatoes to the bread and press them slightly into the bread, then add the chopped bacon and piles of lettuce. Drizzle with the sriracha mayonnaise. Cut into four pieces and serve.

OPEN-FACED STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Combine the oregano, granulated garlic, kosher salt, parsley, basil, and vegetable oil together in a bowl. Add the rib eye to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 12 to 18 hours.
• Remove the rib eye from the marinade and cook in a large skillet, over medium-high heat, to preferred doneness.
• Butter and toast the bread slices and build sandwiches with the meat, red and green bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, and provolone cheese.

OPEN-FACED SANDWICH

Steps:

• To assemble, first spread a layer of mayonnaise on top of the toasted bread.
• Halve the avocado and scoop the flesh out of one half, using a tablespoon to ease it out. Place it on the toast and mash flat using a fork.
• Now spread on a layer of hummus on top of the smashed avocado.
• Arrange the lettuce on top, followed by the tomato slices. Sprinkle over the capers.
• Now add a light squeeze of fresh lemon juice and a small pinch of salt.
• Cut the sandwich in half and then it's ready to devour.

SHRIMP OPEN-FACED SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Toast baguette slices for 5-7 minutes, or until edges are a nice golden brown. Set Aside.
• Heat butter in a large sauté pan until bubbly. Add garlic and shrimp and sauté two minutes on each side. Place in bowl and set aside.
• Add white wine to the pan and simmer until it has reduced. Add parley and then pour over shrimp.
• Combine all ingredients for green mayonnaise in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
• Spread 1 teaspoon of the mayonnaise on each toast.
• Top each slice with 2 whole cooked shrimp and 2 radish slices.
• Garnish with mâche leaves.

OPEN-FACED REUBEN

Steps:

• Toast the bread in a toaster until lightly golden brown, then spread butter over one side.
• Pile the meat on top of the bread, then the sauerkraut on top of the meat.
• Drizzle the dressing generously over the sauerkraut allowing some to spill over the sides of the sandwich.

• Set oven to broiler heat.
• Broil for about 2-4 minutes or until the cheese has melted.
• Serve warm with more dressing if desired.
• Serve sandwich on a plate with knife and fork.
