How to Make Almost Instant And Always Fabulous Grilled Cheese

  1. Preheat your George Foreman grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Butter one side of each bread slice generously with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  3. Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, onto the preheated grill. Top with 1-2 slices of cheese (depending on your preference and the size of your bread), then place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side up.
  4. Close the grill and cook for 2-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Cooking time will depend on your grill and the thickness of your bread.
  5. Carefully remove the grilled cheese from the grill using a spatula. Enjoy immediately!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
