Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Country-style bread
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 4 ounces Brie cheese
- 4 slices Thinly sliced ham
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 cup Arugula (optional)
Instructions
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Flip the slices over and spread 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the unbuttered side of 2 slices of bread.
Drizzle 1/2 teaspoon of honey on top of the mustard and spread evenly.
Layer 2 ounces of Brie cheese onto each of the mustard-covered slices of bread, followed by 2 slices of thinly sliced ham.
If desired, layer 1/2 cup of arugula on top of the ham for an added fresh flavor.
Place the remaining slices of bread on top, buttered side facing out, to create two sandwiches.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the Brie is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half and serving warm.
