Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
While the skillet is heating, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each side of the sourdough bread slices.
Spread 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on one slice of bread.
Layer the sliced turkey breast evenly on top of the mustard-coated bread slice.
Place the cheddar cheese slices on top of the turkey, followed by the lettuce and tomato slices.
Sprinkle the salt and black pepper over the tomato slices.
Cover the sandwich with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise side facing up.
Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt evenly.
Gently place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on one side or until golden brown.
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve warm or wrap to enjoy on the go.
