Heat small or medium frying pan to low heat, add a dash olive oil to pan, then add tomatoes. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side until light brown and crispy, then remove from heat.
Toast the sliced ciabatta roll in the frying pan until edges become crispy, about 1 minute, then remove from heat.

Add baby arugula then polenta-parmesan crusted tomatoes.
Top with sliced Margherita® Prosciutto, close with top half of bread and serve.
