A delightful twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich, featuring a blend of cheeses and a touch of garlic for extra flavor.
Butter one side of each slice of bread generously.
Ensure the butter is softened for easy spreading.
Sprinkle a pinch of garlic powder on the buttered side of each slice.
This adds a subtle garlic flavor to the bread.
Heat a skillet over medium heat until warm.
A cast iron skillet works best for even heat distribution.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in the skillet.
Ensure the skillet is not too hot to prevent burning.
Layer the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on the bread in the skillet.
Mixing cheeses adds depth to the flavor.
Top with another slice of bread, buttered side up.
Press gently to ensure the sandwich holds together.
Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the bottom bread is golden brown.
Covering helps melt the cheese evenly.
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook the other side until golden brown.
Use a spatula to press the sandwich slightly for better contact.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool slightly before serving.
Letting it rest allows the cheese to set slightly, making it easier to eat.
