Time 35m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 pound 85% lean ground beef
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Montreal-style steak seasoning
6 slices white bread
6 slices Colby-Jack cheese

Steps:

Combine ground beef, parsley, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and steak seasoning in a bowl; mix until thoroughly combined. Form into 3 evenly-sized patties.
Warm a nonstick griddle over medium heat. Place burgers onto the warm griddle and cook to desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Remove burgers and set aside.
Warm a second griddle over medium heat. Butter 1 side of each bread slice. Place a slice of bread onto the griddle, butter-side down. Add a slice of cheese, a burger, and a second slice of cheese. Top with another slice of bread, butter-side up. Repeat with remaining burgers.
Cook until bread is golden brown on the bottom, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown and cheese is melted, 3 to 5 minutes more.

BREAKFAST GRILLED CHEESE WITH SOFT SCRAMBLED EGGS

Breakfast Grilled Cheese with Soft Scrambled Eggs image

Soft scrambled eggs in about a minute? We didn't believe it either until we tried Wylie Dufresne's recipe. Mixing in cream cheese adds back the richness lost by cooking the eggs quickly.

Ingredients

Scrambled Eggs:
4 large eggs
1 small pinch of cayenne pepper
Kosher salt
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
3 Tbsp. cream cheese
Assembly:
4 slices American cheese
4 thick slices Martin's Potato Bread or other white bread
Unsalted butter (for pan)

Steps:

Scrambled Eggs:
Whisk eggs and cayenne in a small bowl; season generously with salt.
Heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium. As soon as it begins to foam, add eggs and cook, whisking constantly, until they have set in small curds and are beginning to look dry, about 1 minute. Immediately remove from heat and whisk in cream cheese.
Assembly:
Divide cheese between 2 slices of bread and top with egg mixture. Close up sandwiches.
Heat a dry large skillet over medium-low and brush very lightly with butter. Toast sandwiches until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
Do Ahead
Eggs can be scrambled 2 hours ahead. Store tightly covered at room temperature.

Ingredients

1/3 cup whipped cream cheese
1/4 cup small-curd cottage cheese
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus more for topping
4 frozen waffles (untoasted)
1 to 2 tablespoons jam (any flavor)

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sandwiches and cook until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes per side, adding more butter to the pan if needed. (Adjust the heat if the waffles are browning too quickly.)
