Here’s a classic Grilled Cheese Sandwich 🥪🧀—crispy, buttery, and melty every time.
Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Ingredients (1 sandwich)
- 2 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or sourdough)
- 2–3 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, Swiss, or a mix)
- 1–2 tsp butter
Instructions
- Butter the bread
- Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice.
- Assemble sandwich
- Place cheese between the unbuttered sides of the bread (buttered sides face out).
- Cook
- Heat a skillet over medium-low heat.
- Place sandwich in skillet and cook 3–4 minutes until golden brown.
- Flip carefully and cook 2–3 more minutes until the other side is golden and cheese is melted.
- Serve
- Slice in half and enjoy warm.
Tips
- Cheese melt: Cover the skillet briefly with a lid to help the cheese melt without burning the bread.
- Extra flavor: Add tomato slices, caramelized onions, or cooked bacon.
- Crispy edges: Use a little more butter and cook slowly over medium-low heat.
- Cheese combo: Try sharp cheddar + mozzarella for gooey stretch and flavor.
If you want, I can also give a fancy variation with multiple cheeses and add-ins that tastes restaurant-level.
