Description
Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese: Crispy, buttery garlic bread enveloping gooey melted cheese for a quick, comforting sandwich.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices thick sandwich bread
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
- 1½ cups shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix softened butter with minced garlic and parsley.
- Spread garlic butter evenly on one side of each bread slice.
- Place two slices butter-side down in a skillet over medium heat.
- Sprinkle shredded cheese and Parmesan evenly over the bread.
- Top with remaining slices, butter-side up.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is fully melted.
- Remove from heat, let rest for 1 minute, then slice and serve warm.
Notes
- Use thick-sliced bread for a sturdy sandwich.
- Butter yields a richer flavor; olive oil can be substituted for a lighter option.
- Swap mozzarella for cheddar if you prefer a sharper taste.
- Keep the heat moderate to avoid burning the bread before the cheese melts.
- Let the sandwich rest for a minute before slicing for neat halves.
