Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese
A delicious twist on the classic grilled cheese, featuring crispy, buttery garlic bread and a gooey cheese blend.
Ingredients
For the Garlic Butter
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened Can substitute with margarine if preferred.
- 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder Fresh garlic can be used instead, finely minced.
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley Oregano can be used as a substitute.
For the Sandwich
- 4 slices bread Use sturdy bread; sourdough is a great choice.
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese.
Instructions
Preparation
- In a small bowl, mix softened butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley until well combined.
- Spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread, covering all the way to the edges.
Cooking
- Place two slices butter-side down on a skillet and add half the cheese on each. Top with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up.
- Heat the skillet over low heat. Cook sandwiches for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown and cheese is melted.
- Remove from the pan, slice, and serve immediately.
Notes
Feel free to add ingredients like pesto for variation. Fresh garlic provides a different flavor profile, and any bread that holds cheese and butter works well.
