Slice the tomato into thin rounds and season both sides with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each sourdough bread slice. This will be the side that gets toasted in the pan.
Crumble the feta cheese and evenly distribute it across two slices of the bread (the unbuttered side).
Place 2-3 slices of seasoned tomato on top of the feta cheese.
Add 2 fresh basil leaves to each sandwich on top of the tomato slices.
Place the remaining bread slices on top of the fillings with the buttered sides facing outward.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Swirl it around to coat the pan evenly.
Carefully place the sandwiches in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the feta cheese is warm.
Remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them sit for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half.
Serve warm and enjoy your Grilled Feta and Tomato Sandwich!
