Bacon Caramelized Onion Melted Cheese Sandwich Recipe

Ingredients for Bacon Caramelized Onion Melted Cheese Sandwich

• 4-6 slices bacon

• 2-4 slices cheese (cheddar, provolone, or your favorite)
• White Bread
• 2-3 tablespoons butter
• 1-2 tablespoons mayonnaise (optional)

How to Make Bacon Caramelized Onion Melted Cheese Sandwich

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil.
2. Place 4-6 slices of bacon on the prepared baking sheet.
3. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked to your desired crispness. Remove from oven and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
4. While the bacon is baking, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium skillet over medium heat.
5. Add 1 large onion, thinly sliced, to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, for 15-20 minutes, or until the onions are deeply caramelized and very soft. Add 1 tablespoon of butter as needed to prevent sticking.
6. During the last 1-2 minutes of onion cooking, place 2-4 slices of your favorite cheese (cheddar, provolone, etc.) on top of the onions to melt.
7. If desired, spread 1-2 tablespoons of mayonnaise on each slice of bread.
8. Layer the cooked bacon on one slice of bread, followed by the caramelized onions and melted cheese.
9. Top with the other slice of bread to create your sandwich.
10. Serve immediately and enjoy!
