Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices French bread
- 150 grams Brie cheese
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 large, thinly sliced Yellow onion
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoons Fresh thyme leaves
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and golden, about 15-20 minutes. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and fresh thyme leaves halfway through cooking. Set aside once done.
Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on one side of each slice of bread.
Cut the Brie cheese into thin slices and evenly distribute over two slices of the bread.
Spoon the caramelized onions over the Brie slices, spreading them out evenly.
Top each sandwich with a remaining slice of bread, mustard side down, to form two sandwiches.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and let it melt and sizzle.
Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on the first side, pressing down gently with a spatula, until golden brown and crisp.
Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet, flip the sandwiches carefully, and cook the second side for another 3-4 minutes until the bread is golden and the Brie is melted.
Remove sandwiches from the skillet, let sit for 1-2 minutes to cool slightly, then slice in half and serve immediately.
