This grilled turkey Cuban sandwich offers a vibrant and high-protein twist on the traditional lunchtime favourite. By swapping some of the classic components for thick slices of roasted turkey breast and a zesty mint and lime mayonnaise, the dish achieves a sophisticated flavour profile. The combination of salty Black Forest ham, melted Swiss cheese, and a hint of chilli provides a satisfying savoury depth, while the ciabatta is pressed until perfectly crisp and golden.

Ideal for a substantial weekend lunch or a quick midweek dinner, this recipe is a brilliant way to use up leftover roast turkey. The weighted cooking method ensures the bread is beautifully toasted and the cheese is thoroughly melted, creating a professional deli-style finish at home. Serve these warm with a side of crisp pickles or a light green salad for a balanced and comforting meal.

Ingredients for Grilled Turkey Cuban Sandwiches

240ml mayonnaise, divided
1 tablespoon hot chilli sauce (such as Sriracha)
1/3 cup (packed) finely chopped fresh mint
2 cucchiai di succo di lime fresco
2 cucchiai di scalogno tritato
1 cucchiaino di zucchero
1 cucchiaino di cumino macinato
450g loaf ciabatta bread, ends trimmed, bread cut crosswise into 6 pieces (each about 5x3 inches), each halved horizontally
12 deli slices Swiss cheese
450g thinly sliced Black Forest ham
6 1/4-inch-thick slices cooked turkey breast
90ml (about) butter

How to make Grilled Turkey Cuban Sandwiches

Mix 120ml mayonnaise and chilli sauce in small bowl. Mix 1/2 cup mayonnaise, mint, and next 4 ingredients in another small bowl.

Spread chilli mayonnaise over cut sides of bread. Top each bottom half of bread with 1 cheese slice, ham slices, and 1 turkey slice. Sprinkle turkey with salt and pepper. Spoon mint mayonnaise over turkey. Top with remaining cheese and top halves of bread.

Working in batches, melt 2 tablespoons butter in large griddle over medium heat. Add 3 sandwiches; top with piece of foil. Place 13x9x2-inch metal pan atop sandwiches. Fill pan with 6 to 3.6kg of canned goods and cook until bread is golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove pan with weights and foil. Transfer sandwiches to work surface. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in griddle. Turn sandwiches over onto griddle. Replace foil and pan with weights. Continue cooking until cheese melts and sandwiches are golden brown on second side, about 4 minutes. Repeat with remaining butter and sandwiches. Cut in half; serve.
