Instructions
- Get out and measure all of your ingredients.
- In a medium sized skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add your fresh thyme once melted.
- Add in the minced onions and sauté over medium high heat until translucent.
- Add in the sliced mushrooms, the ½ teaspoon of fresh cracked pepper, and lightly season with salt. Sauté until soft and golden, with a few minutes left of cooking add in the garlic. Sauté for a few minutes longer then remove the mushroom mixture from the pan and let drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Set aside.
Air Fryer
- Prepare air fryer basket with cooking spray.
- Start with a layer of bread, buttered side down, then a layer of mozzarella and pepper jack mixed together and a sprinkling of green onions.
- Add another layer of cheeses, and top with a second piece of bread.
- Smear butter on the outside of your built sandwiches.
- Carefully place inside your air fryer. Use a toothpick to secure sandwiches if possible.
- Set temperature to 400 degrees and timer to 4-5 minutes. Then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until cheese is melted and bread golden brown.
- Repeat until all of your grilled cheeses are cooked.
- Slice, serve and enjoy every bite!
Skillet
- In the same skillet you used for the mushrooms, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium low heat. Honestly, I usually use more butter.
- While the butter is melting, begin building your sandwiches. Start with a layer of bread, then a layer of mozzarella and pepper jack mixed together and a sprinkling of green onions.
- Next, add a layer of mushrooms.
- Another layer of cheeses, and top with a second piece of bread.
- Make as many sandwiches as you need, this recipe will make about 3-4 sandwiches but can be easily multiplied for more.
- Once the butter is melted carefully transfer the sandwiches to the skillet.
- Let cook until the bottoms are nice and golden and the cheese is melty. Carefully flip sandwich and cook the other side until golden and everything has melted together.
- Remove sandwiches from skillet, and serve immediately.
- Enjoy every bite!
