Description

Crisp and crunchy on the outside, gooey and warm on the inside I don’t think there is anything more satisfying than a perfectly grilled cheese sandwich!.


Ingredients

  • Good quality bread
  • Butter
  • Oka cheese slices
  • Sprinkle of chipotle pepper
  • Dill pickles

Instructions

  1. Butter both sides of slices of bread; add a slice of your favourite cheese. I like to sprinkle the cheese with a small amount of chipotle pepper. Top with a second slice of bread.
  2. On a medium heat let the pan heat up for about 15 seconds then glide the sandwich into the pan.
  3. Next, cover the pan with a lid. Doing this helps evenly distribute the heat to the sandwich for optimum melting. Grilling the first side of your grilled cheese should only take about six minutes, but keep an eye on it depending on the heat of your stove top. No one wants a burned grilled cheese sandwich!
  4. When the underside of the sandwich is golden brown and the cheese is melting out the sides, turn over the sandwich and brown the other side over medium heat. The second side grills much faster than the first, 1 – 2 minutes. So stand guard! Once the second side is crisp and golden, remove it from the pan, slice your sandwich and serve with some garlic dill pickles. The combination can’t be beat!!!
