Ideal for a quick lunch or a satisfying snack, this herb-infused rendition promises to become a favorite in your culinary repertoire.

Ingredients:

1 tsp rosemary
0.70g
1 tsp dill
0.18g
1 tsp dried basil
0.70g
2 slices white bread
50g
1 tbsp butter
14g
2 oz cheddar cheese
54g
1 tsp dried oregano
1g
1 tbsp fresh parsley
3.80g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Herb Butter:
- In a small bowl, mix together the rosemary, dill, dried basil, and dried oregano.
- Soften the butter (if not already softened) and incorporate the mixed herbs into it thoroughly.
2. Assemble the Sandwich:
- Lay out the two slices of white bread on a clean surface.
- Spread an even layer of the herb-infused butter on one side of each slice of bread.
3. Prep the Cheese:
- Grate the cheddar cheese if it's not already grated.
- Evenly distribute the cheese over the non-buttered side of one of the slices of bread.
4. Add Fresh Parsley:
- Sprinkle the fresh parsley on top of the cheese for a burst of fresh herb flavor.
5. Form the Sandwich:
- Place the second slice of bread on top of the cheese and parsley with the buttered side facing outwards.
6. Cooking the Sandwich:
- Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Place the sandwich onto the preheated skillet.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown and crispy. Then flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown and crispy.
7. Serve:
- Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing.
- Serve warm and enjoy your delicious herb-infused grilled cheese sandwich!

Tips:

- Make sure your butter is at room temperature for easy spreading on the bread slices.

- Use a non-stick skillet or a well-seasoned cast-iron pan to ensure even grilling and prevent sticking.

- Press down gently on the sandwich with a spatula while cooking to ensure the cheese melts evenly.

- For an even richer flavor, consider using a combination of different cheeses such as mozzarella and provolone together with cheddar.

- Allow the sandwich to cool for a minute before cutting and serving to prevent the melted cheese from oozing out.

With its fragrant herb-infused flavors and gooey melted cheddar, this grilled cheese sandwich proves that simple ingredients can lead to extraordinary taste experiences. Whether enjoyed on its own or paired with a bowl of tomato soup, this recipe is sure to bring comfort and joy to any meal. Happy cooking!
