This grilled turkey Cuban sandwich recipe combines turkey breast, ham, cheese, and pickles in a panini-style sandwich.

Ingredients

  • cooking spray
  • 1 Butterball boneless breast of turkey roast , 3 pound
  • 2 cloves garlic , sliced
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
  • 2 loaves Cuban , 15-inches long
  • 0.25 cups honey mustard
  • 8 ounces smoked ham
  • 8 ounces sliced Swiss cheese
  • 12 sandwich-style dill pickle slices

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly coat the cold grate with cooking spray. Arrange a drip pan on grill.

  2. 2

    Pat turkey dry with paper towels; discard gravy packet (or refrigerate and use within 2 to 3 days). Lift and shift string netting position for easier removal after cooking. Cut small slits, at least 1 inch apart, over entire surface of turkey. Insert 1 garlic slice into each slit; brush turkey with oil.

  3. 3

    Combine cumin, salt, and black pepper; sprinkle over turkey.

  4. 4

    Place turkey over drip pan on the preheated grill; grill, covered, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 170 degrees F (77 degrees C), 1 ¼ to 1 ¾ hours. Transfer to a cutting board; rest 10 minutes. Keep grill on.

  5. 5

    Remove string netting. Cut half of turkey into six ⅛-inch-thick slices; set aside. Refrigerate unsliced turkey for another use.

  6. 6

    Halve bread loaves, lengthwise, then, cut each into 3 pieces (for 6 sandwiches). Spread each bread bottom with 2 teaspoons mustard; top with sliced turkey, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles, and bread tops. Press sandwiches with hands to flatten; tightly wrap each in aluminum foil.

  7. 7

    Grill wrapped sandwiches, each weighted with a heavy iron-skillet or brick, until heated through, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

  8. 8

    Serve sandwiches warm, wrapped in aluminum foil.
