1
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all your ingredients: bread, cheese, and butter. Make sure the cheese is sliced and the butter is at room temperature for easy spreading.
2
Butter the Bread
Take the two slices of bread and spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice. This will help achieve a golden, crispy crust.
3
Assemble the Sandwich
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, on a cutting board. Lay one slice of cheese on top, then place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side up.
4
Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, carefully place the assembled sandwich in the skillet. Cook until the bottom slice is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes.
5
Flip the Sandwich
Using a spatula, carefully flip the sandwich to the other side. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the second side is also golden brown and the cheese is melted.
6
Serve
Once both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted, remove the sandwich from the skillet. Let it cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve immediately.
