Ingredients
2 slices sourdough or Italian bread
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
2 slices mozzarella cheese
2 slices provolone cheese
1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, and grated parmesan until smooth.
2. Spread the garlic butter mixture on one side of each slice of bread.
3. On the unbuttered side, layer mozzarella and provolone cheese between the slices to form a sandwich.
4. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich butter-side down and grill for 3-4 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy.
5. Press gently with a spatula while cooking to ensure even toasting and melting.
6. Remove from skillet once cheese is melted and bread is crisp. Slice and serve hot.
Notes
For an extra crispy crust, sprinkle more parmesan on the buttered side before grilling.
You can mix up the cheeses—try gouda, cheddar, or fontina for different flavor combos.
