Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich

This Best Grilled Cheese Sandwich uses a OneBun split and lightly buttered, layered with fontina cheese, shredded chicken, and Parmesan cheese, then toasted in a hot cast iron skillet. The result is a crisp, golden exterior with melty cheese and warm shredded chicken inside. The combination of cheeses imparts richness and a sharp flavor while the chicken adds protein and texture, making this sandwich a filling choice.

Description

The sandwich preparation begins by separating the OneBun and buttering the outside lightly to encourage crisping and browning during toasting. The skillet is preheated to a high temperature to quickly toast the bread while melting the cheeses. Fontina cheese provides a mild, creamy melt, complemented by sharper, salty Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top. The shredded chicken adds tenderness and a savory note that balances the cheese.

Toasting is brief due to the bun's fast response to heat, flipping once to toast both sides evenly. The sandwich's texture has a crunchy exterior from the butter-toasted bun, contrasting with the gooey cheese and warm chicken inside.

The notes encourage adding as much cheese as desired, suggesting cheesier sandwiches yield a richer taste and more indulgent texture.

Servings
  • 1 onebun brand name
  • 1/5 tbsp butter very little is needed
  • 1-2 ounces fontina cheese
  • 1/3 cup chicken shredded
  • 1/4 cups Parmesan Cheese

Instructions

  1. Separate your OneBun in half and then lightly butter the outside of the bun.
  2. On a hot cast iron, place one slice of OneBun down, buttered side down and add on top the fontina cheese, shredded chicken, and then parmesan cheese before placing the other half of the OneBun on top. 
  3. After 1-2 minutes (the OneBun toasts fast!) use a spatula and flip the sandwich over.

Notes

  • The amount of cheese can be adjusted to taste; a cheesier sandwich enhances flavor and texture.
