Ingredients
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup gruyere cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, mayonnaise, and garlic powder until fully combined. Set aside.
Step 2
Lay 4 slices of sourdough bread on a flat surface. Spread an even layer of Dijon mustard on one side of two of the slices. These will form the interior of the sandwiches.
Step 3
Divide the sharp cheddar and gruyere cheeses evenly and sprinkle them over the mustard-covered sides of the bread.
Step 4
Place the remaining two slices of bread on top of the cheese layer to form two sandwiches.
Step 5
Spread the prepared butter-mayonnaise mixture evenly over the outsides (top and bottom) of each sandwich. This will ensure a golden, crispy crust when grilled.
Step 6
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Once heated, place the sandwiches in the skillet.
Step 7
Cook the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even browning and melting. Flip carefully and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes on the other side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
Step 8
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half.
Step 9
Garnish with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
