1
Prepare the Ingredients
Slice the onion thinly and chop it into smaller pieces if desired. Set aside.
2
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and let drain on paper towels.
3
Sauté the Onions
In the same skillet, using the bacon grease, add the sliced onions. Sauté until they are soft and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
4
Assemble the Patty Melt
Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. On the non-mayo side, layer bacon, sautéed onions, Swiss cheese, and American cheese. Top with another slice of sourdough, mayo side up.
5
Grill the Sandwich
In the skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Place the assembled sandwich in the skillet and grill until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Flip and grill the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.
6
Serve
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot.
