Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Focaccia

    If your focaccia is not pre-sliced, carefully slice it into two pieces horizontally to create a top and bottom slice.

  2. 2

    Gather Ingredients

    Ensure you have all your ingredients ready: 2 slices of focaccia, 1 slice of cheddar cheese, 1 slice of mozzarella cheese, 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, and any optional add-ins like fresh basil or tomato slices.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Butter the Bread

    Spread 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter on one side of each slice of focaccia.

  2. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the unbuttered side of one slice of focaccia, layer the cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and any optional add-ins like basil leaves or tomato slices. Top with the second slice of focaccia, ensuring the buttered sides are facing out.

  3. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwich on the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown and the cheese starts to melt.

  4. 6

    Flip and Finish

    Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and grill the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.

Serving

  1. 7

    Slice and Serve

    Once both sides are golden brown and crispy, remove the sandwich from the skillet. Let it cool for a minute, then slice it in half and serve warm.
