Equipment

  • 1 Non-stick skillet
  • 1 box grater

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients

  • 4 slices sandwich bread sourdough with soft crust
  • 4 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 3 cloves garlic very finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon Italian parsley finely chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup freshly shredded cheese Gruyere, Colby Jack, and smoked Cheddar

Instructions

  • In a bowl, mix the softened butter, mayonnaise, garlic, and parsley until evenly combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
  • Spread the garlic butter mixture on the bread on one side only. Top with shredded cheese and cover with the second slice, buttered side up.
  • Heat a nonstick skillet over medium low heat. Medium-low heat allows the cheese to fully melt in the center before the crust turns too browned.
  • Once the skillet is warm, cook on both sides, about 5 minutes per side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted. You may need to flip them over a few times to ensure the cheese is fully melted in the center. As you flip, gently press them down.
  • Take it out, give it a minute for the natural release so the cheese sets just right, then slice and serve it hot.

Notes

Freshly grate the cheese for best results! It will melt a lot better. You can also use pre-packaged cheese slices. Pick ones that melt well, such as American or Colby Jack cheese. Cook over medium low heat, otherwise the exterior will burn before the cheese has a chance to fully melt. Flip a few times for even heat distribution, and press down the grilled cheese slightly as it cooks. Use a non-stick skillet or griddle to prevent sticking. Substitutions and variations: Cheese: Swiss, Monterey Jack, Havarti, Gouda, or Muenster. Bread choice: Sandwich bread, sliced brioche, sourdough. Add-ins: roasted garlic cloves (instead of minced garlic), deli meat, caramelized onions, sliced apples.
