Sandwich Ingredients

  • 4 Hawaiian rolls
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Optional: Sliced tomatoes
  • Optional: Crispy bacon

Instructions

  1. Slice the Rolls: Carefully slice each Hawaiian roll in half horizontally without cutting all the way through, keeping the halves attached for easy handling.
  2. Preheat Skillet and Butter Rolls: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spread unsalted butter on the inside of each roll half to ensure a golden and crispy finish.
  3. Assemble Sandwich: Place the bottom halves of the rolls butter-side down onto the skillet. Add a generous amount of shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top, and optionally add sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon for extra flavor. Press the top halves gently onto the cheese-filled bottoms.
  4. Grill the Sandwiches: Cook the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes per side. Use a spatula to flip carefully to avoid spilling the filling. Grill until both sides are golden brown and the cheese is fully melted.
  5. Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice if desired, and serve hot for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, add more butter to the skillet as needed.
  • Feel free to customize the filling with your favorite cheeses or add-ins like ham or avocado.
  • If using bacon, cook it separately until crispy before adding it to the sandwich.
  • Keep an eye on the heat to prevent burning; medium heat works best for evenly cooked sandwiches.
