Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 6 Large Eggs
- 1 tablespoon Butter (for scrambling eggs)
Sandwich Assembly
- 1/4 cup Butter (for spreading on bread)
- 8 slices Italian Bread
- 8 slices American Cheese
Instructions
- Scramble the eggs: Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat until sizzling. Add 6 large eggs and cook gently, stirring occasionally by lifting and moving the eggs with a spatula to allow uncooked egg to flow beneath. Continue for 4-5 minutes until eggs are fully set but still soft. Remove eggs from skillet and keep warm.
- Prepare the bread: Carefully wipe out the skillet with a paper towel to remove any egg residue. Spread about 1 teaspoon of butter onto one side of each of the 8 slices of Italian bread.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Place a slice of bread buttered side down on a clean surface. Add one slice of American cheese, then layer 1/4 of the scrambled egg mixture, another slice of American cheese, and top with another slice of bread buttered side up.
- Grill the sandwiches: Heat the skillet over medium heat. Place two sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 4-6 minutes, flipping once halfway through until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Serve: Remove grilled sandwiches from the skillet and keep warm while cooking the remaining sandwiches. Serve hot.
Notes
- Use a nonstick skillet for best results to prevent sticking while scrambling and grilling.
- Butter the bread evenly to achieve a crispy golden crust.
- Flip sandwiches only once to ensure even cooking and prevent them from falling apart.
- You can substitute American cheese with your preferred melting cheese such as cheddar or mozzarella.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
