Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced (sweet)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 plum tomatoes, halved and seeded or 2 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drained and patted dry
1 tablespoon canola oil (if roasting tomato)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
6 slices good quality white bread, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices (Pullman loaf)
1 1/2 cups grated gouda cheese
8 slices prosciutto, sliced about 1/8-inch thick
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature or 8 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • For Caramelized Onions:.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized. Season with salt and pepper.
  • For Roasted Tomato Mayonnaise:.
  • Easiest to use sun dried tomatoes, but if you don't have it, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the fresh tomato in a small dish or baking sheet, drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until the tomato is very soft and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  • Put the mayonnaise, vinegar, sun dried tomato or roasted tomato, garlic and thyme in a food processor and process until smooth, season with salt and pepper. Scrape into a bowl.
  • For Sandwich:.
  • Place 4 slices of the bread on a flat surface, divide half of the cheese among the slices. Top the cheese with 2 slices of prosciutto then top the prosciutto with some of the caramelized onions and the remaining cheese.
  • Place the 4 remaining slices of bread on top to make four sandwiches. Butter the top of the bread using half of the butter.
  • Preheat a cast iron pan or cast iron griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan, butter-side down (may need to do in batches) and cook until lightly golden brown.
  • Spread the remaining butter on the bread facing up, then flip and continue cooking until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese has melted.
  • Serve with dollop of roasted tomato mayonnaise on the top and on the side if you prefer.

GRILLED HAM AND GOUDA SANDWICH WITH LEFTOVER EASTER VEGGIES



Grilled Ham and Gouda Sandwich with Leftover Easter Veggies image

Whether celebrating a holiday or just another Saturday night, a meal with my chef father-in-law always means leftovers. I love it, don't get me wrong! It's just a matter of coming up with ways to use them all. The beautiful thing about his Easter meal is that everything is so simply prepared. A beautiful roasted ham (locally sourced from a Maryland farm just down the street from their house), lightly dressed green vegetables and a crisp white wine; it's a blissful welcome to spring. Making great use of what was already in-house, I whipped up an amazing dinner that really captured the bright flavors of the previous night's meal. I dressed up a vegetable medley with simple lemon-dill vinaigrette while my favorite sandwich secret weapon - red pepper jelly - worked its magic on a grilled ham and Gouda sandwich.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 thick slices good-quality bread
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
4 tablespoons red pepper jelly
10 to 12 slices leftover roast ham (about 1 pound total)
1/2 pound Gouda, thinly sliced
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon fruit preserves, such as apricot or peach
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and ground black pepper
4 cups roughly chopped (as needed) prepared green vegetables, such as asparagus, zucchini or peas

Steps:

  • Place a large skillet or griddle pan over low heat. Lay out the slices of bread on a work surface and spread a thin layer of mayonnaise over each one. Flip each slice over and spread a thin layer of red pepper jelly over each one. Build the sandwiches by dividing the ham and Gouda among four of the slices and closing them so that the mayonnaise is on the outside.
  • Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook, turning once, until golden brown and heated through.
  • While the sandwiches are toasting, in a large bowl whisk together the lemon juice, preserves, dill, olive oil and some salt and pepper. Toss the green vegetables with the dressing and reserve. Cut the sandwiches on a bias and serve warm along with the vegetable salad.

Categories     Trusted Brands: Recipes and Tips     Borden Cheese

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 tablespoons butter
2 yellow onions, sliced
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
4 Borden® Gouda Cheese Slices, or more as needed
1 (4.75 ounce) package seasoned coating mix for chicken

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add onions and saute until golden brown, stirring frequently. Continue cooking over medium-low heat until onions turn deeper brown, 35 to 45 minutes. If they start to burn, reduce heat. When completely caramelized, remove skillet from heat.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Cut a pocket into the side of each chicken breast. Evenly stuff pockets with 1 or 2 slices of Gouda cheese (depending on size of breast) and 1 tablespoon caramelized onions.
  • Place seasoned coating mix in a shallow dish. Evenly dip each chicken breast in coating mix and place on prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven until chicken breasts are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 20 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

GRILLED SAUSAGE SANDWICHES WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND GRUYèRE CHEESE



Grilled Sausage Sandwiches with Caramelized Onions and Gruyère Cheese image

Categories     Sandwich     Onion     Sausage     Winter     Swiss Cheese     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds onions, thinly sliced
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon (packed) dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
3 fully cooked smoked sausages (such as white bratwurst or chicken-apple)
4 large slices rye or pumpernickel bread
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 ounces Gruyère or Emmenthal cheese, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and sauté until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in vinegar, sugar and caraway seeds. Reduce heat to medium-low and sauté until onions are deep brown and very tender, about 20 minutes longer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Rewarm over low heat before using.)
  • Preheat broiler. Brush 11x7-inch metal baking pan with oil. Place sausages in pan. Broil until sausages are brown and crisp, about 6 minutes per side. Transfer sausages to work surface and cut lengthwise in half.
  • Arrange 3 sausage halves on each of 2 bread slices. Spread 2 teaspoons mustard over sausages on each. Top sausages with caramelized onions, dividing equally. Top with Gruyère or Emmenthal cheese slices, dividing equally. Cover with remaining 2 bread slices. Spread half of butter over upper bread slices.
  • Heat large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Carefully invert sandwiches, buttered side down, into skillet. Cover and cook until bottoms are brown, about 5 minutes. Spread remaining butter over upper bread slices. Turn sandwiches, cover and cook until bottoms are brown, about 4 minutes longer.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will be. Look for thick-cut ham, fresh mozzarella cheese, and ripe tomatoes.
  • Slice the ham and cheese thinly: This will help the sandwich to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: Leave some space between the sandwiches so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the sandwiches over medium heat: This will help to prevent the bread from burning.
  • Keep an eye on the sandwiches: They can cook quickly, so it's important to watch them so that they don't burn.
  • Serve the sandwiches immediately: They are best when they are hot and gooey.

Conclusion:

A grilled ham and cheese sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's simple, delicious, and can be made with a variety of ingredients. With a few tips, you can make the perfect grilled ham and cheese sandwich that everyone will love.
