Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • For 2 sandwiches
  • 4 slices of good bread (I like sourdough)
  • 4 slices havarti cheese
  • 2 TBS butter
  • 8 oz mushrooms (roughly chopped)
  • 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
  • thyme (dried or fresh)
  • salt & pepper

Instruction

  • 1. Heat skillet on medium heat and melt 1 TBS of butter. Add onions and mushrooms to skillet. After about 5-7 minutes you will notice the mushrooms ‘sweating’, little beads of water coming to the surface. Wait another minute and then toss around quickly, and leave them again. Wait about 5 more minutes. By this time their color should be turning a rich brown, and you can toss around a couple more times. Once they are a caramel color, they are done. Sprinkle thyme and salt and pepper over mixture and stir.
  • 2. Using the remaining butter, evenly butter 1 side of each slice of bread. With the butter side facing down, place 1 slice of cheese on bread, then about 1/2 cup of mushroom mixture, then another slice of cheese, and then another slice of bread with the butter side up. Repeat for 2nd sandwich.
  • 3. Place the sandwiches into a skillet on medium heat (lower heat if your bread is browning, but cheese isn't melting enough). Let cook for 3-4 minutes and then flip carefully to other side. Cook an additional 3-4 minutes or until browned.
  • 4. Remove from skillet and serve cut in half.
