Method

Grilled Cheese Sandwich

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Take two slices of bread and lay them on a clean surface. Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice.

  2. 2

    Add Cheese

    Place a slice of cheddar cheese on the unbuttered side of one slice of bread, then top it with the second slice of bread, buttered side up.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwich in the skillet and grill for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.

  4. 4

    Flip the Sandwich

    Carefully flip the sandwich with a spatula and grill the other side for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.

  5. 5

    Slice and Serve

    Remove the grilled cheese from the skillet, let it cool for a minute, then slice it in half diagonally and serve.
