Caprese Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Who doesn't love a grilled cheese sandwich?! This is my take on making a more 'adult' version of a grilled cheese sandwich. Absolutely delicious!
Ingredients
-
4 slice Thick white bread
-
2 slice Fresh mozzarella
-
1/4 bunch Basil (more or less depending on taste)
-
to taste Balsamic glaze
-
1 dash Salt and pepper
-
2 tbsp Butter, softened
Cooking Instructions
-
1
Spread butter on two slices of bread and lay them buttered side down on a clean work surface. (Tip: using a piece of wax paper makes for easy clean up)
-
2
Slice washed tomatoes in half, then arrange the halves on the bread. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
-
3
Add basil. This can be washed, dried and torn into pieces. Depending on your personal preference, add as much or little as you like.
-
4
Top each sandwich with a thick slice of fresh mozzarella. Drizzle with balsamic glaze.
-
5
Butter remaining two slices of bread and place it buttered side up on the mozzarella. Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet on medium heat and toast sandwiches on each side until golden brown and cheese is melted. (Lower heat gives sandwich time to develop a nice crunchy crust. A lid could be used to trap the heat in skillet to ensure melted, gooey cheese)
