Ingredients
- 8 slices Sourdough bread
- 8 slices Sharp cheddar cheese
- 8 slices Gruyere cheese
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 cups Arugula (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (optional)
- 1 bottle Olive oil spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat, about 375°F (190°C). Clean the grates and lightly oil them using the olive oil spray or a paper towel dipped in oil.
Step 2
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly over one side of each bread slice.
Step 3
On the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, layer 2 slices of cheddar cheese and 2 slices of Gruyere cheese. Add a small handful of arugula and a thin spread of Dijon mustard if desired.
Step 4
Top with another slice of bread, buttered side out. Repeat to assemble 3 more sandwiches.
Step 5
Place the sandwiches on the preheated grill. Close the lid and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden and crisp and the cheese is melted. Keep an eye on the sandwiches to prevent burning, and adjust the heat as needed.
Step 6
Remove the sandwiches from the grill and let them cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing them in half or quarters.
Step 7
Serve the grilled cheese sandwiches immediately with your favorite dipping sauces or a light side salad.
