Wash and dry the fresh produce. Thinly slice both cheeses. Roughly chop the lettuce. Quarter, core, and thinly slice the apple. Thinly slice the cucumber into rounds. In a bowl, combine the sliced apple, sliced cucumber, vinegar, and 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Thinly slice into rounds (for a milder dish, halve lengthwise, remove the ribs and seeds, and thinly slice crosswise). Thoroughly wash your hands, knife, and cutting board immediately after handling.
While the apple and cucumber marinate, assemble the sandwiches using the bread, mango chutney, sliced cheeses, and as much of the sliced pepper as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be; season with salt and pepper.
In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium until hot. Add the sandwiches. Loosely cover the pan with foil and cook 2 to 4 minutes per side, or until lightly browned and the cheese is melted (if the pan seems dry, add a drizzle of olive oil before flipping). Transfer to a cutting board and immediately season with salt. Carefully cut in half.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the chopped lettuce and marinated apple and cucumber (including any liquid). Toss to combine. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the halved sandwiches with the salad on the side. Enjoy!
