Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams fresh goat cheese
- 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 8 slices French or sourdough bread, sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup arugula
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix the goat cheese, thyme, parsley, honey, salt, and black pepper until well combined and creamy.
Spread an even layer of the goat cheese mixture onto four slices of bread. Top each with a small handful of arugula, and cover with the remaining slices of bread to form sandwiches.
Lightly butter the outsides of each sandwich. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Place the sandwiches in the skillet, working in batches if necessary. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is warmed through.
Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board. Let them cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve warm.
