Garlic Butter Mixture
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
Main Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix softened butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley until well combined. This will create a flavorful garlic butter spread that serves as the base for your sandwiches.
- Spread Garlic Butter: Evenly spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread, ensuring every bite is infused with garlic goodness.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Place two slices of bread butter-side down on a skillet or flat surface. Distribute half the shredded cheese blend evenly over each slice.
- Complete Sandwiches: Top the cheese-covered slices with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up, to form two sandwiches.
- Cook First Side: Heat a skillet over low heat. Carefully place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
- Flip and Cook Second Side: Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes until the second side is golden and the cheese inside is thoroughly melted.
- Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice them as desired, and serve immediately while hot and gooey for the best experience.
Notes
- Use low heat to prevent burning and allow the cheese to melt evenly.
- You can substitute the bread with sourdough or French bread for added flavor.
- Feel free to add extra herbs or spices like Italian seasoning for a twist.
- Adding tomato slices or cooked bacon inside can elevate the flavor further.
- Use a weighted pan or a sandwich press for extra crispy sandwiches.
