Ultimate Scrambled Egg Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Prep time: 5 mins | Cook time: 10 mins | Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 2 slices white or sourdough bread
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbsp milk or heavy cream
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella or Colby Jack cheese (for the cheese pull)
- 2 slices Cheddar cheese
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Scramble the Eggs: Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper together in a small bowl. Melt 1/2 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until softcurd scrambled eggs form. Remove from heat immediately while still soft.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Butter one side of each bread slice with the remaining butter. Lay one slice buttered-side down on a clean plate. Layer on one slice of Cheddar cheese, half of the shredded mozzarella, the scrambled eggs, the rest of the mozzarella, and the second slice of Cheddar. Top with the second slice of bread, buttered-side facing up.
- Grill to Perfection: Heat a pan over medium-low heat. Place the sandwich in the pan and grill for 3–4 minutes until the bottom bread is golden brown and crispy. Flip carefully and grill the other side for another 3–4 minutes until the cheese is completely melted and stretchy.
- Serve: Cut diagonally to reveal the cheesy scrambled egg center, and serve warm immediately.
