With ooey, gooey cheese in the center, and crispy, buttery bread to accompany it, grilled cheeses are a super quick snack or meal that doesn’t require much effort. While cooking one or two grilled cheese sandwiches isn’t a big deal in a pan, if you have a handful of people who are wanting one, cooking a couple won’t be good enough. Your skills are just too slow (mine included), until now.
In the video below, Ashley Moore from America’s Test Kitchen shows you how it’s done like a pro: whip up eight grilled cheese sandwiches in a matter of minutes. Instead of breaking a sweat on the skillet, you’ll be making those cheeses in the oven with the help of two baking sheets.
To begin, preheat your oven to 450°F along with two empty sheets. All you have to do is everything like normal when it comes to assembling the sandwiches—butter each slide of bread on one side, pop on the cheese (there’s non-dairy cheese out there too), and top it off with another piece of bread. Take out the heated baking sheets, place your eight on one of ‘em, and place the second tray’s bottom right on top.
Would you look at that? By gosh golly, you’ll have a sandwich of sandwiches. Scoot your trays in the oven in the lower-middle rack for about five minutes.
The heated trays will crispify the bread to a golden brown, and the cheese will be nothing but melted-to-perfection goodness. If you want to get a little crazy and live life on the edge, why not add in grilled onions or peppers before you pop the cheeses in the oven? Add whatever pre-cooked fixings you want in between to crank it up a notch.
Besides tomato soup, my favorite grilled cheese activity is dipping it in ketchup…don’t get grossed out by that, give it a shot…it will change your life for forever (perhaps this is a bit dramatic, but it is delicious).
For around five minutes, eight grilled cheeses will be done in a snap. Sure to delight the guests or your stomach (see? I don’t judge you).
