Time 20m

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature, or more as needed
1 Vidalia or sweet onion, diced
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 teaspoon onion powder
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 ounces mild Cheddar slices (about 6 slices)
4 ounces Swiss cheese slices (about 6 slices)
6 slices white country bread

Steps:

  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, thyme, onion powder and a pinch of salt and pepper to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions soften and brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the onions to a bowl and leave the skillet on low heat.
  • Place one slice of Cheddar and one slice of Swiss on each piece of bread. Top 3 of the slices with the onion mixture, then sandwich with the other cheesed breads, making 3 sandwiches. Spread about 2 tablespoons butter on the tops of the sandwiches, just enough to cover the tops in a thin layer. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons in the skillet (adding more if it looks dry). Place the sandwiches butter-side up in the skillet. Cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook the buttered side for another 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the skillet and cut crosswise into strips-great for dipping in soup! Serve immediately or keep in a warm oven in aluminum foil until ready to use.

This sandwich was delicious! The caramelized onions were perfectly caramelized and the cheese was melted and gooey. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The caramelized onions were bland and the cheese was not melted evenly. I would not recommend this recipe.

This sandwich was just okay. The caramelized onions were good, but the cheese was a bit too melted. I think I would have preferred it with a less melty cheese.

This sandwich was a bit too rich for my taste. The caramelized onions were a bit too sweet and the cheese was a bit too gooey. I think I would have preferred it with a less sweet onion and a less melty cheese.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it! The French onion soup flavor was spot-on and the grilled cheese was perfectly crispy. I'll definitely be making this again.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit! My family loved the combination of flavors and textures. The sandwich was cheesy, gooey, and had just the right amount of crunch. We'll definitely be making this again soon.
