Ingredients
  

4 slices of thick-cut sourdough bread

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried parsley (or 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped)

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Optional: sliced tomatoes or cooked bacon for extra flavor

Instructions
 

Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, minced garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper until well combined. This will be your garlic butter spread.

    Spread the Garlic Butter: Take two slices of sourdough bread and generously spread the garlic butter on one side of each slice.

      Layer the Cheese: On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer half of the cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly. If desired, add sliced tomatoes or cooked bacon on top before adding the second slice of bread, garlic butter side up.

        Cook the Grilled Cheese: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Carefully place the sandwich in the skillet, cooking until the bread is golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.

          Flip and Cook the Other Side: Once the first side is golden, flip the sandwich carefully and reduce the heat to low. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the other side is also golden brown.

            Serve: Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it sit for a minute before slicing in half. This allows the cheese to set slightly, making for easier eating. Serve hot and enjoy the ooey-gooey goodness of your Garlic Bread Grilled Cheese!
