Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices Thick slices of sourdough bread
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened
- 1 clove Garlic clove, minced
- 0.5 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup Crumbled feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with the minced garlic until well combined. Set aside.
Lay out the slices of sourdough bread on a flat surface. Spread the garlic butter evenly over one side of each bread slice.
In another bowl, mix the shredded cheddar, shredded mozzarella, and crumbled feta cheese until evenly combined.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the teaspoon of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto the skillet. Sprinkle a generous layer of the cheese mixture on top, spreading it evenly.
Top with another slice of bread, buttered side facing up, to form a sandwich.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy. Use a spatula to gently press down the sandwich and help the cheeses melt.
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook the other side for 3-4 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is melted through.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and allow it to cool slightly before slicing in half. Repeat the process with the remaining bread and cheese mixture to make the second sandwich.
Serve warm and enjoy your hearty grilled cheese!
