Ingredients
- 2 slices Bread
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 1 medium Tomato
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
Instructions
Wash and slice the tomato into thin, even slices.
Lightly sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper over the tomato slices to enhance their flavor.
Spread 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Place one slice of bread, buttered side down, in a skillet or non-stick pan over medium heat.
Lay one slice of cheddar cheese on the unbuttered side of the bread in the skillet.
Add a few slices of tomato on top of the cheese, spreading them out evenly.
Place the second slice of cheddar cheese over the tomato slices.
Top with the second slice of bread, buttered side facing up.
Cook the sandwich for 3-4 minutes on the first side, pressing it gently with a spatula to ensure even browning.
Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side, until both sides are golden brown and the cheese has fully melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing it in half.
Serve warm and enjoy your grilled cheese and tomato sandwich!
