Grilled Kimcheese Sandwich

Adapted from Eat Your Vegetables Bold Recipes for the Single Cook by Joe Yonan. Joe's original recipe is for 1 serving, of course. I've adjusted the recipe to serve 4 (no sense in fighting over 1 single Grilled Kimcheese Sandwich in my house of 4). If you have a panini grill - feel free to use that instead of a frying pan. If the kimchi is a little too spicy, you can use a paper towel to lightly blot some of the chile flecks away.
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices bread
  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened
  • 1 cup store-bought kimchi, drained
  • 1 green apple or Asian pear, cored and thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions
 

  • Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat.
  • For each sandwich, spread butter evenly on both sides of two slices of bread. Layer the kimchi, green apple (or Asian pear) and cheese evenly on one piece of bread and top with the other slice of bread.
  • Set a medium skillet over medium heat for a few minutes, then lay the sandwich in the pan and cook, pressing with a spatula from time to time, until the underside is golden brown and the cheese starts to melt. Repeat on the other side, transfer to a plate, and eat.
