Equipment

  • 1 Skillet
  • 1 Spatula
  • 1 sharp knife

Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices Sourdough Bread
  • 2 tablespoons Butter softened
  • 4 slices Cheddar Cheese
  • 1 cup Baby Spinach washed
  • 1/2 cup Caramelized Onions
  • 1/4 cup Sun-Dried Tomatoes chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the skillet over medium heat.
  • Spread butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.

  • Place another slice of cheddar cheese over the vegetables.
  • Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side up.
  • Carefully transfer the sandwiches to the preheated skillet.

  • Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 2 minutes on the cutting board.
  • Slice the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.

Notes

For the best results, ensure your skillet is properly preheated before cooking to achieve a crispy, golden crust. Additionally, using a mix of cheeses can add depth of flavor, and including ingredients like caramelized onions and sun-dried tomatoes can elevate the sandwich to gourmet status. Always let the sandwich rest briefly to allow the cheese to settle before cutting.
