Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Deli turkey breast slices
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Start by pre-heating a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, kosher salt, and black pepper. This will be your mustard mayo spread.
Spread butter evenly on one side of each sourdough bread slice. These will be the outsides of the sandwich, meant for grilling.
On the other side of the bread (the unbuttered side), spread a generous amount of the mustard mayo mixture.
Place two slices of turkey breast on the mustard mayo side of each of two slices of bread.
Layer two slices of cheddar cheese on top of the turkey for each sandwich.
Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side up, to form the sandwiches.
Carefully place the sandwiches in the preheated skillet. Cook for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted.
Once cooked, remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for a minute on a cutting board.
Slice each sandwich in half and serve warm.
