Best Grilled Cheese Recipe
This Best Grilled Cheese Recipe is a crispy, melty delight made with artisan sourdough, cheddar, and provolone. Perfect for any meal and so easy to make!
Equipment
- Non-stick Skillet
- Spatula
- Cutting Board
- Sharp Knife
Ingredients
- 8 slices artisan sourdough bread
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- butter for spreading
- garlic salt with parsley flakes, for seasoning
Instructions
- Start by gathering all your ingredients on a clean workspace. Lay out your slices of artisan sourdough bread, cheddar, and provolone cheese, and have your butter and garlic salt ready to go.
- Spread a generous amount of butter on one side of each slice of bread. Make sure to cover the surface evenly for that perfect golden crust. Sprinkle a pinch of garlic salt on the buttered side for added flavor.
- On the unbuttered side of four slices of bread, layer two slices of cheddar and two slices of provolone. Ensure that the cheese is spread out evenly to create a deliciously melty center.
- Place the remaining four slices of bread on top of your cheese layers, with the buttered side facing out. This forms a beautiful sandwich that’s ready to hit the skillet.
- Preheat your non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the assembled sandwiches into the skillet. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
- Cook the sandwiches for about 4-5 minutes on one side, or until they are golden brown. Flip the sandwiches carefully with your spatula and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side, ensuring the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.
- Once both sides are perfectly toasted and the cheese is oozy, remove the sandwiches from the skillet. Let them rest for a minute before slicing them in half. Serve hot and enjoy the melty goodness!
Notes
- Use medium heat to ensure the cheese melts without burning the bread.
- Butter should be at room temperature for easy spreading and to prevent tearing the bread.
- Customize your sandwich with different breads, cheeses, or add-ins like bacon or fresh herbs.
