Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 Hawaiian rolls
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Optional Additions

  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Crispy bacon

Instructions

  1. Slice the Rolls: Carefully slice each Hawaiian roll in half horizontally, making sure not to cut all the way through so the halves remain hinged.
  2. Butter the Rolls: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spread unsalted butter on the inside surfaces of each Hawaiian roll half to ensure a golden, crispy texture when grilled.
  3. Assemble the Sandwich: Place the bottom halves of the Hawaiian rolls onto the skillet. Generously add shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top of each, and then press the top halves down slightly to sandwich the cheese.
  4. Grill the Sandwiches: Cook the sandwiches for about 3 to 4 minutes on one side until golden brown, then carefully flip them using a spatula. Grill the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes until it is also golden and the cheese has melted completely.
  5. Serve Hot: Remove the grilled cheese sandwiches from the skillet once both sides are crispy and the cheese is melted. Slice if desired and serve immediately while warm and gooey.

Notes

  • To add extra flavor, consider including sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon inside the sandwich before grilling.
  • Be careful when flipping the sandwich to keep the cheese from spilling out.
  • Use a non-stick skillet and medium heat to avoid burning the bread.
  • For a richer flavor, you can use a mix of cheeses such as cheddar with Monterey Jack.
