Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

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

Optional Ingredients

  • Sliced tomatoes (optional)
  • Crispy bacon (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally without cutting all the way through to create a hinge for easy grilling and flipping.
  2. Butter the rolls: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spread unsalted butter evenly on the insides of each Hawaiian roll half to ensure a golden, crispy texture when grilled.
  3. Assemble and grill: Place the bottom halves of the buttered rolls on the heated skillet. Generously fill with shredded Monterey Jack cheese, adding sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon if desired. Gently press the top halves down to secure the sandwich.
  4. Grill until golden: Cook the sandwiches until the bottoms are golden brown and the cheese begins to melt, about 3-4 minutes. Carefully flip each sandwich and grill the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes to melt the cheese completely and crisp the bread.
  5. Serve: Once both sides are beautifully crispy and the cheese is fully melted, remove sandwiches from the heat. Slice as desired and serve hot for the best cheesy, gooey experience.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and ensure even browning.
  • You can add extras like sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon for added flavor and texture.
  • Pressing the sandwich slightly while grilling helps the cheese melt evenly and the roll to toast well.
  • Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning the bread before the cheese melts.
