Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Golden and buttery bread hugging melted cheese.
Prep Time 3 minutes
Cook Time 7 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 1 sandwich

Ingredients
  

  • 2 slices sandwich bread
  • 2 slices cheddar cheese
  • 1 tbsp butter softened

Method
 

  1. Butter one side of each slice of bread.
  2. Place one slice butter-side down in a skillet over medium heat.
  3. Layer the cheese on top and add the second slice, butter-side up.
  4. Cook 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden and the cheese has melted.
  5. Slice in half and serve hot.

Notes

Keep the heat at medium so the bread crisps before the cheese is fully melted.
