Preparation
Prepare the Ingredients
Gather all your ingredients. If using butter, allow it to soften to room temperature.
Cooking
Assemble the Sandwich
Place one slice of bread buttered side down in a skillet over medium heat. Add a slice of cheese on top, then place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side up.
Grill the Sandwich
Cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown. 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.
Add Fresh Herbs (Optional)
If using fresh herbs, sprinkle them on the melted cheese before closing the sandwich completely for added flavor.
Serve
Remove the sandwich from the skillet, let it cool for a minute, then cut in half and serve warm.
