Description

Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese is a buttery, golden-crisp sandwich loaded with melty sharp cheddar and infused with garlic-parsley butter. It’s the ultimate comfort food made simple.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 2 Tbsp. finely chopped parsley
  • ½ garlic clove, finely grated
  • ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 thick slices Pullman or other sandwich bread
  • 4 oz. sharp cheddar, coarsely grated

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix butter, parsley, garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Spread about 1 tablespoon of the butter mixture on one side of each bread slice.
  3. Place 2 slices of bread, buttered side down, in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Divide cheese evenly between both slices in the skillet.
  5. Top with the remaining bread slices, buttered side up.
  6. Cook for about 4 minutes, or until the underside is golden brown and crispy.
  7. Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for another 4 minutes until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  8. Transfer to a cutting board, let rest for a minute, then slice in half and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter for easier spreading.
  • Don’t cook over high heat—medium is best to ensure the cheese melts and the bread doesn’t burn.
  • Coarsely grate cheese for optimal melt and texture.
  • Let sandwiches rest for 1 minute before slicing to keep cheese intact.
