Equipment
- Nonstick skillet or cast iron pan
- Spatula
- Mixing bowl
- Grater
- Knife + cutting board
Ingredients
- 4 slices bread (white, sourdough, or Italian loaf)
- 3 tbsp softened butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (or 1 tsp garlic powder)
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley (or mixed Italian herbs)
- 1 cup freshly grated cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, provolone blend)
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: chili flakes, Parmesan for garnish
Instructions
- Make Garlic Butter: Mix softened butter with minced garlic, parsley, and a pinch of salt.
- Prepare Bread: Spread garlic butter on one side of each slice.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Place cheese on the unbuttered side of two slices, then top with remaining slices (buttered side out).
- Cook: Heat skillet over medium-low. Cook sandwiches until golden brown on one side, then flip. Cover pan briefly to help cheese melt.
- Finish: Remove when both sides are crisp and cheese is gooey. Slice diagonally and serve hot.
Notes
- Use freshly grated cheese for best melt.
- Cook low and slow to avoid burning garlic.
- Add-ons like bacon, ham, or spinach make great variations.
- Reheat leftovers in a skillet or oven for crispness—avoid microwaving.
