Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese combines buttery garlic bread with gooey layers of mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan for the ultimate comfort food sandwich. It's quick to make and perfect for lunch, dinner, or a satisfying snack.
Ingredients
2 tbsp softened butter
1/2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
4 slices thick white bread
4 slices mozzarella cheese
4 slices cheddar cheese
2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, garlic powder, and chopped parsley until well combined.
- Spread the garlic butter evenly over one side of each slice of bread.
- Place two slices of bread butter-side down in a skillet over medium heat.
- Layer the mozzarella, cheddar, and grated Parmesan evenly over each slice.
- Top with the remaining bread slices, butter-side facing up.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted.
- Slice in half and serve immediately while warm.
Notes
Add cooked bacon for a smoky flavor.
Substitute sourdough, Texas toast, brioche, or whole wheat bread if desired.
Try provolone, Monterey Jack, Swiss, or Gouda for different cheese combinations.
Add sliced tomatoes or caramelized onions for extra flavor.
Mix Italian seasoning or red pepper flakes into the garlic butter for added seasoning.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
Reheat in a skillet over medium-low heat or in an air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 3-4 minutes to restore crispness.
Avoid microwaving if possible, as it softens the bread.
