AP: Put grill back in grilled cheese



The Associated Press

Warm weather makes it a good time to put the “grill” back into grilled cheese.

A hot sandwich fresh off the grill is a great no-fuss, quick-fix meal for a summer worknight.

While any bread works well, flatbread is especially nice. It toasts well and is thin enough that the heat quickly penetrates to the sandwich fillings. Naan, pita pockets and flour tortillas are all great candidates.

As for the fillings, let your imagination go. But as a general rule, try to keep ingredients thin. Thick ingredients, such as chunks of chicken, thick slabs of cheese or large vegetables won’t have time to heat before the bread burns.

For the kids, a toasted peanut butter and jelly is surprisingly good. And be sure to experiment with unusual combinations of cheeses and deli-sliced meats.

This recipe calls for slices of prosciutto and provolone cheese, both available at the deli counter or pre-sliced in packages. Sliced ham, roast beef or turkey breast are nice, too. As for cheese, consider finely crumbled feta.

If you want to use vegetables heftier than the greens used in this recipe, grill or sauté them until tender first, then assemble the sandwich and grill it.

Really grilled cheese

Start to finish: 15 minutes

Servings: Two

1 teaspoon chopped hot or sweet pickled peppers

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
