Chunky Monkey Grilled Cheese Recipes

ULTIMATE GOURMET GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Add 1 1/2 Tbsp butter and olive oil to a skillet and heat over MED-LOW heat. Add diced onions, salt, pepper, fresh thyme and 1 tsp of fresh rosemary to the hot skillet and saute, stirring often, until onions are soft and starting to brown, about 10 minutes.
• Stir brown sugar into the onions and cook another minute.
• Transfer onions to a plate.
• Spread one side of two pieces of bread with a little bit of mayonnaise.
• To the same skillet, add remaining butter and rosemary, and heat over MED heat. Swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet with the melted butter.
• Add both pieces of bread, mayonnaise side down, and cook until bread is golden brown and crunchy, about 2-3 minutes.
• As soon as you add the bread to the skillet, add a bit of cheese to the top of each piece of bread. Once it starts to melt a little, sprinkle a couple tablespoons of the caramelized onions over the top of one of the pieces of bread.
• When the bread is good and golden brown, sandwich the pieces of bread together and cook on LOW until cheese is fully melted.
• Transfer to a plate, repeat with remaining slices of bread and ingredients.
• Slice and enjoy!

CHEDDAR & CHUTNEY GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Lay 6 slices of the bread on a cutting board and brush each slice generously with the butter. Turn the slices over and spread each one with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the chutney. Place 1/2 cup of the Cheddar evenly on each slice and place the remaining 6 slices of bread on top of each sandwich. Brush the tops generously with melted butter.
• Heat a panini press (see Cook's Note) and grill the sandwiches according to the directions for the machine, until the bread is nicely browned on both sides and the Cheddar is starting to melt.
• Place the sandwiches on a cutting board and cut each one in half diagonally. Serve hot.
