What a great way to change up the classic grilled cheese with this easy basil and mozzarella grilled cheese sandwich. Fresh basil gives the gooey mozzarella cheese a burst of flavor that goes well with it. This meal is quick and filling, and it's great for lunch or a light dinner.
Ingredients:
- 4 slices of bread
- 8 slices of fresh mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions:
Place 4 slices of bread on a clean surface
Layer each bread slice with 2 slices of fresh mozzarella cheese
Top the cheese with a generous amount of fresh basil leaves
Place the remaining 4 slices of bread on top to form sandwiches
In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter
Once the butter is melted and the skillet is hot, add the sandwiches
Cook until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side
Add more butter to the skillet if needed for the second side of the sandwiches
Once both sides are golden brown and the cheese is melted, remove from the skillet
Slice the sandwiches diagonally and serve hot
