Indulge in the ultimate comfort food with this irresistible Toasted Swiss Ham Sandwich, a quick and delicious meal perfect for any time of day. Featuring layers of savory cooked ham and creamy Swiss cheese tucked between slices of bread slathered with a tangy Dijon mustard-mayo spread, this sandwich takes classic flavors to the next level. The secret lies in the golden, buttery crust achieved by toasting it in a skillet until perfectly crisp, while the cheese melts into gooey perfection. With just five minutes of prep time and five minutes to cook, this single-serving sandwich is as easy to make as it is satisfying. Whether you're looking for a hearty lunch or a speedy snack, this toasted delight is sure to impress.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise together until well combined.
Spread the mustard-mayo mixture evenly over one side of both slices of bread.
Layer 3 slices of ham on one of the bread slices, over the mustard-mayo spread.
Place 2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of the ham, ensuring the cheese is evenly distributed.
Season lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
Close the sandwich with the second slice of bread, mustard-mayo side facing inward to seal the filling.
Spread softened butter on the outer sides of the sandwich slices—this will help achieve a golden, crispy crust.
Place the sandwich in the preheated skillet. Press it gently with a spatula and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Flip the sandwich carefully and cook for another 2-3 minutes, pressing gently with the spatula until the other side is toasted and the cheese is fully melted.
Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it rest for a minute before slicing in half.
Serve the toasted Swiss ham sandwich immediately and enjoy!
