I first had this sandwich at a small restaurant and immediately went home to duplicate the recipe. I've been making my grilled cheese sandwiches this way ever since!

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 slices Italian bread
1 tablespoon softened butter, divided
1 tablespoon prepared pesto sauce, divided

Steps:

  • Spread one side of a slice of bread with butter, and place it, buttered side down, into a nonstick skillet over medium heat.

  • Spread remaining pesto sauce on one side of the second slice of bread, and place the bread slice, pesto side down, onto the sandwich. Butter the top side of the sandwich.
  • Gently fry the sandwich, flipping once, until both sides of the bread are golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 5 minutes per side.

This sandwich was a bit too greasy for my taste. The pesto was flavorful, but the cheese was a bit too melted and the bread was soggy.

I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but this sandwich was still really good. The cheese was melted and gooey and the bread was toasted to perfection.
