Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the unbuttered side of two slices of bread, layer the cheese, cooked bacon, and diced green chile. Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side up.

  4. 4

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwiches in the skillet and grill until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.

    Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot.
