Caprese Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons Freshly Grated Parmesan
- Two 1/2 inch Slices Of Good Bread I Used Ciabatta
- 1 Slice Havarti Cheese
- 2-3 Leaves of Basil Washed and Torn
- 2 Tablespoons Sun-Dried Tomatoes or two slices fresh tomato
- Olive Oil for Brushing
Instructions
-
Brush the outside of each slice of bread with olive oil.
-
To build your sandwich, top one piece of bread with the Parmesan, followed by the tomatoes, basil and Havarti.
-
Heat a grill pan over medium heat and lightly brush with olive oil to prevent sticking.
-
Place the sandwich in the middle of the pan and grill it for 3-4 minutes. You want to cook this low and slow. Too high of a heat will result in a sandwich that isn't warm on the inside.
-
When the sandwich is golden brown on one side, carefully flip it and cook on the other until it's golden brown and the cheese is melted.
