Garlic Mushroom Grilled Cheese

  • Author: Chef Mia

Description

A savory twist on the classic grilled cheese, featuring buttery garlic mushrooms and melted cheese between golden, crispy bread.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 4 slices sourdough bread
  • 2 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 cup shredded Gruyère cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add garlic and thyme, cook for 1 minute more. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from heat.
  2. Butter one side of each bread slice. Place two slices buttered-side down in a clean skillet over medium heat.
  3. Divide the mushroom mixture between the two slices in the skillet. Top each with equal amounts of Gruyère and mozzarella cheese. Place the remaining bread slices on top, buttered-side up.
  4. Cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip and cook the other side until golden and cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes more. Serve immediately.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste.
