Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 2 medium Tomatoes
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
- 1 quarter cup Parmesan cheese
- 4 large Basil leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Instructions
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and lightly oil it with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Slice the tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Mince the garlic cloves.
Add the tomatoes to the skillet and roast them for 2–3 minutes on each side until softened slightly. Sprinkle the tomatoes with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning while they cook. Remove the tomatoes from the skillet and set them aside.
In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic to the butter and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, but do not let it brown.
Brush each slice of sourdough bread with the garlic-infused butter on one side.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering roasted tomatoes, shredded mozzarella cheese, freshly grated Parmesan cheese, and a basil leaf between two slices of bread with the buttered sides facing out.
Heat a clean skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwiches into the skillet. Cook for 3–4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for a minute before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, toasty goodness!
