Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat a cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat. (1 minute)

02

Step

Spread 1/2 teaspoon of mayonnaise evenly on one side of each bread slice. Place the bread slices, mayonnaise-side down, into the preheated skillet.

03

Step

On one bread slice, layer the Jalapeño Jack cheese, followed by the thinly sliced Roma tomato.

04

Step

On the other bread slice, layer the fresh mozzarella cheese, followed by the chiffonade basil and the sharp Cheddar cheese.

05

Step

Cook until the bread turns golden brown and the cheeses begin to melt, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.

06

Step

Carefully invert the bread slice topped with tomato onto the bread slice topped with basil and cheese, creating a sandwich.

07

Step

Continue cooking until the cheeses are fully melted and the sandwich is heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes more.

08

Step

Remove from skillet and serve immediately. Enjoy!

For a richer flavor, consider using a garlic-infused mayonnaise.
Experiment with different cheese combinations to discover your perfect blend.
A sprinkle of balsamic glaze after grilling adds a touch of sweetness and acidity that complements the flavors beautifully.
Use a panini press for even grilling and a perfectly melted interior.

    I used provolone instead of mozzarella because that's what I had on hand, and it was still great.
