Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Slice the tomato into thin rounds and the mozzarella cheese into similar thickness.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On one slice of sourdough bread, layer the mozzarella cheese, tomato slices, and basil leaves.

  3. 3

    Season

    Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze, then sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Top and Toast

    Place another slice of sourdough on top and press down gently. Heat a skillet over medium heat and toast the sandwich on both sides until golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet, cut in half, and serve warm.
