Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • Dijon Mustard (2 tablespoons)
  • Mayonnaise (2 tablespoons)
  • Tomato (1, sliced)
  • Lettuce (2 leaves, washed and dried)
  • Unsalted butter (4 tablespoons, at room temperature)
  • Bread (4 slices)
  • Cheddar cheese (2 slices)
  • Black forest ham (4 slices)

Instructions

  1. Spread 1 tablespoon of butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
  2. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add two slices of bread, butter side down.
  3. On each slice of bread in the skillet, layer in this order: one slice of cheese, two slices of ham, one lettuce leaf, and a few tomato slices.
  4. Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise and 1 tablespoon of Dijon mustard on the non-buttered side of the remaining slices of bread. Place them on top of the assembled sandwiches, butter side up.
  5. Cook the sandwiches until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Carefully flip and cook until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is melted, another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Remove sandwiches from the skillet, let them cool for a minute, then cut in half and serve.
