Chile Rellenos Grilled Cheese with Chipotle Honey Ketchup image

It's a chile rellenos mash-up--in a yummy, melty grilled cheese sandwich. Debate if you will. Soft bread that squishes down when you take a bite rocks a grilled cheese for some, but crunchy, substantial artisan bread is a must for others. You choose--enjoy!

KETCHUP GRILLED CHEESE



Ketchup Grilled Cheese image

This is really a simple recipe. As a kid I was obsessed with ketchup. I never let anyone else make my grilled cheeses because I was convinced they couldn't master this technique... it's really nothing special but it just tastes better than dipping the sandwich in the ketchup. I'm not sure if it will work as well using real cheese, I always made it with Kraft or Velveeta... so just a warning :)

Time 10m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 slices bread, your favorite kind
2 slices processed American cheese (Kraft, Velveeta, etc)
2 -3 tablespoons ketchup (I eyeball it, but I'm liberal about it)
butter or margarine

Steps:

  • Heat skillet/frying pan over low-medium heat.
  • Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place cheese between unbuttered sides of the bread.
  • Grill sandwich on each side, flipping when the butter on the edges of the top slice begins to melt. Make sure cheese is nice and melty.
  • As soon as the grilled cheese is done, move to a plate and partially lift up the top slice of bread (keep the corner of the sandwich "attached"). Cheese should be very very melted and almost runny still.
  • Very quickly (before cheese hardens) squirt ketchup in between the two slices of bread, as evenly as possible.
  • Replace top slice of bread. Enjoy over a plate, as ketchup will probably seep out :).

Tips:

  • Use a good quality bread that will hold up to the heat of the grill.
  • Slather the bread with plenty of ketchup, both on the inside and outside.
  • Add your favorite cheese to the sandwich. Cheddar, mozzarella, and Gruyère are all great choices.
  • If you want a crispy sandwich, grill it over medium heat until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey.
  • If you prefer a softer sandwich, grill it over low heat until the bread is just heated through and the cheese is melted.
  • Serve the sandwich immediately with your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

The ketchup grilled cheese is a delicious and easy sandwich that is perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover ketchup. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sandwich that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a new sandwich to try, give the ketchup grilled cheese a try. You won't be disappointed.
