Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Gently preheat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step
1 mins

Evenly spread the softened butter on one side of each bread slice. (1 minute)

03

Step
1 mins

Place two bread slices, butter-side down, in the preheated skillet. (1 minute)

04

Step
2 mins

Artfully arrange tomato slices atop each bread slice, followed by a generous layering of sharp Cheddar cheese. (2 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Crown each sandwich with the remaining bread slices, butter-side up. (1 minute)

06

Step
4 mins

Cook until the bottom slice is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt. (3-4 minutes)

07

Step
4 mins

Carefully flip the sandwiches and continue cooking until the cheese is fully melted and the second side is golden brown. (3-4 minutes)

08

Step
1 mins

Remove from skillet, slice in half, and serve immediately. (1 minute)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a thin smear of Dijon mustard or pesto to the bread before grilling.
Experiment with different cheeses, such as Gruyere, Fontina, or a smoked Gouda, for a unique flavor profile.
If you don't have softened butter, you can brush the bread with olive oil or mayonnaise for a crispy, golden crust.
