The Best Grilled Cheese
The perfect grilled cheese comes down to three things: the right bread, the right cheese, and one simple swap that gets you a crispier, more evenly golden crust every time. Just 3 ingredients, ready in 7 minutes.
Servings 1 sandwich
Ingredients
- 2 slices White or Sourdough Bread (1/2" thick)
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 to 2 slices Cheddar or American Cheese
Instructions
- Pre-heat a Panini Press or a skillet on medium heat.
- Evenly spread a thin layer Mayonnaise on the outside of the bread and place the cheese slices in the middle.
- Griddle the sandwich until it is golden on both sides and the cheese is melted, about 4 minutes. Give it a press into the skillet (if using that method) to encourage crisping.
- Slice the grilled cheese in half on the diagonal and enjoy immediately.
