Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 6 oz aged Gouda cheese, grated
- 1 cup fresh cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium sweet onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter (divided)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare your ingredients by slicing the onions and mushrooms while grating the Gouda cheese.
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the sliced onions and sauté until translucent. Add the mushrooms and cook until golden brown (5-7 minutes).
- Assemble your sandwich by spreading butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Place one slice butter-side down, layer with Gouda cheese followed by sautéed onions and mushrooms, then top with another slice of bread (butter-side up).
- Heat another skillet over medium heat and grill the sandwich for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet for another minute to ensure the cheese melts thoroughly.
- Remove from heat, cut in half, and serve hot.
