Follow The Directions

01

Step

Caramelize the Onions: Heat grapeseed oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced red onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly browned, about 8-12 minutes. Transfer the caramelized onions to a small bowl, being careful to reserve the flavorful oil in the skillet.

02

Step

Prepare the Bread: Lightly brush one side of each rye bread slice with the reserved grapeseed oil. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

03

Step

Assemble the Sandwiches: Arrange 4 bread slices, oiled-side down, in the skillet. On each slice, layer 1 slice of smoked Gouda, 1 slice of provolone, a generous spoonful of chopped marinated artichoke hearts, and a portion of the caramelized onions. Top with the remaining bread slices, oiled-side up.

04

Step

Grill to Perfection: Cook the sandwiches over medium heat until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheeses are melted and gooey, about 4-5 minutes per side. Use a spatula to gently press down on the sandwiches as they cook to ensure even browning and melting.

05

Step

Serve Immediately: Slice each grilled cheese sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy the explosion of flavors and textures!

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a thin smear of Dijon mustard to the inside of the bread before adding the cheese.
Experiment with different types of cheese, such as Gruyere, Havarti, or even a sharp cheddar.
A sprinkle of red pepper flakes can add a touch of heat to the sandwich.
Serve with a side of tomato soup or a crisp green salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
