Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 4 Hawaiian Rolls (brioche can be substituted for a richer taste)
- 1 cup Cheese of Choice (such as mozzarella for mild creaminess or pepper jack for a spicy kick)
- 2 tablespoons Butter (for spreading on the insides of the rolls)
Instructions
- Prepare the Rolls: Carefully slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally to create pockets for the cheese.
- Heat the Skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat until warm, preparing it for grilling the sandwiches.
- Butter the Rolls: Generously spread butter on the inside surfaces of both halves of each roll to ensure a golden, crispy finish.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Place one half of each buttered roll in the skillet, add a generous pile of your chosen cheese on top, then cover with the other half of the roll.
- Cook the Sandwiches: Grill the sandwiches until the bottom side is golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip and cook the other side until it is also golden brown and the cheese inside is thoroughly melted.
- Serve: Remove the grilled cheeses from the skillet, let them cool for a minute, then slice and serve. Optionally, pair with your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.
Notes
- Use brioche rolls as a substitute for a richer, buttery flavor.
- Choosing pepper jack cheese adds a spicy kick, while mozzarella offers creamier mildness.
- Make sure to heat the skillet properly before adding the sandwiches to get a perfect golden crust.
- Serve with dipping sauces like marinara, ranch, or honey mustard for added enjoyment.
- Adjust cooking time if using thicker rolls or different types of cheese to ensure proper melting.
