Ingredients
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 4 tablespoons Thousand Island dressing
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Lay out the sourdough bread slices on a clean work surface. Spread 1 tablespoon of Thousand Island dressing on one side of each slice.
Step 2
Place 2 slices of Cheddar cheese on top of the dressing on two of the bread slices. Top with the remaining slices of bread, dressing side down, to form sandwiches.
Step 3
Preheat a skillet over medium heat.
Step 4
Spread 1 tablespoon of butter on one side of each sandwich.
Step 5
Place the sandwiches, butter-side down, in the preheated skillet. Spread the remaining butter on the top side of each sandwich while the bottoms are cooking.
Step 6
Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Flip the sandwiches carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 8
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and allow them to cool slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Step 9
Slice each sandwich in half, serve warm, and enjoy!
