Ingredients
- 8 slices sliced ham
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 8 slices sandwich bread
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Step 2
Spread a thin layer of the mustard-mayo mixture on one side of each slice of bread.
Step 3
Place 2 slices of ham and 2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of the mustard-mayo side of 4 slices of bread. Top each with the remaining 4 slices of bread, mustard-mayo side down, to form sandwiches.
Step 4
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Step 5
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter on the outer side of each bread slice (both top and bottom of each sandwich).
Step 6
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Step 7
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them sit for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half and serving immediately.
