Golden brown, pan-fried Kimchi Grilled Cheese is on the menu! Melty cheese with a caramelized kimchi and bacon filling sit between two thick slices of sourdough bread. Yum, friends. YUM!

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups kimchi, chopped (personal preference - you can leave it unchopped too)
6 slices bacon, chopped
2 tablespoons brown sugar
black pepper to taste
sliced sourdough bread
American cheese
Gruyere cheese
butter or mayo

Steps:

  • Cook the bacon in a large pan over medium high heat until crisped and fat is rendered. Add the kimchi to the pan with the brown sugar. Pan fry for a few minutes, leaving it undisturbed for a few minutes at a time so it dries out and gets a little bit caramelized. Season with black pepper. Transfer to a bowl and wipe the pan clean.
  • Layer your sandwiches: a slice of sourdough, gruyere cheese, kimchi mixture, American cheese, and a second slice of sourdough. Spread butter or mayo over the top and bottom of the sandwich.
  • Heat the same skillet to medium heat; add the sandwich and cook for a few minutes on each side until golden brown. Cut and serve. Magic.
