Ingredients
Scale
Garlic Butter Spread
- 4 Tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese, thinly shredded or grated
Cheese Layers
- 2–4 slices provolone cheese
- 2–4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 2–4 slices gouda cheese
Bread
- 4 slices large sourdough bread
Instructions
- Prepare Garlic Butter Spread: In a small bowl, thoroughly combine the soft unsalted butter with the minced garlic until a smooth and flavorful garlic butter mixture is formed.
- Butter and Cheese Parmesan on Bread: Heat a flat skillet over medium heat on the stovetop. Evenly spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Then, sprinkle the parmesan cheese onto the buttered side of each bread slice, gently pressing so it adheres.
- Assemble and Grill the Sandwiches: Place two slices of bread buttered side down onto the hot skillet. Layer 1 to 2 slices each of provolone, sharp cheddar, and gouda cheese evenly over the bread. Top with the remaining two slices of bread, buttered side up. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese begins melting, then carefully flip the sandwiches. Continue cooking until the other side is golden brown and the cheese is fully melted, approximately another 3 to 4 minutes. Serve immediately for optimal taste and texture.
Notes
- This recipe uses large sourdough bread slices; adjust the quantity of cheese accordingly to fit your bread size and taste preference.
- Feel free to swap or add other favorite cheese varieties for different layers of flavor.
- Check cheese labeling to ensure it is vegetarian-friendly if that is a dietary requirement.
