Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices sliced bread
- 4 slices cooked ham
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the butter, chopped parsley, chopped chives, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended to make the herb butter.
Spread an even layer of the herb butter on one side of each slice of bread.
Place two slices of bread, herb butter side down, on a clean surface. Layer each with 2 slices of cheese, 2 slices of ham, and then top with the remaining slices of bread, herb butter side up.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Place the sandwiches on the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, until the bread is golden brown and crispy.
Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them rest for a minute before slicing in half.
Serve warm and enjoy your toasted ham and cheese sandwich with herb butter!
