Savor the Richness of Garlic Mushroom Grilled Cheese

Savor the Richness of Garlic Mushroom Grilled Cheese made approachable with clear cues, pantry staples, and flexible swaps.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz mushrooms sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 4 slices sourdough bread
  • 4 oz sharp cheddar cheese grated
  • 4 oz mozzarella cheese grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  • In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
  • Stir in minced garlic and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the garlic is fragrant and the mushrooms are golden brown. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In another skillet, melt butter over medium-low heat. Place two slices of sourdough bread in the skillet, and layer half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top.
  • Spoon the sautéed mushroom and garlic mixture evenly over the cheese, then top with the remaining cheese. Place the second slice of bread on top to form a sandwich.
  • Cook the sandwich for about 4-5 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes on the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients to make a second sandwich.
  • Once both sandwiches are cooked, slice them in half and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm.
