Ingredients

  • 8 slices Sliced turkey breast
  • 4 slices Cheddar cheese
  • 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha
  • 1 teaspoon Honey
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 8 slices Sourdough bread
  • 1 cup Baby spinach or arugula (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sriracha, and honey until smooth. Set aside for spreading.

Step 2

Spread a thin, even layer of the prepared sauce on one side of each bread slice.

Step 3

On half of the bread slices (sauce side up), place 2 slices of turkey, 1 slice of cheddar cheese, and a small handful of baby spinach or arugula, if using.

Step 4

Top with the remaining bread slices (sauce side down) to assemble the sandwiches.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.

Step 6

Place two sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until golden brown.

Step 7

Flip the sandwiches carefully, adding another 1 tablespoon of butter if needed, and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the other side is golden and the cheese is melty.

Step 8

Repeat the cooking process with the remaining sandwiches.

Step 9

Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, let them rest for 1-2 minutes, and then slice them in half for serving.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your flavorful Blushing Turkey and Cheese Sandwiches!
