Ingredients
Scale
4 slices of sourdough or French bread
1 large onion (yellow or sweet)
2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
1 cup of shredded Gruyère cheese
½ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
½ teaspoon of thyme (fresh or dried)
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
In a medium skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the thinly sliced onion, salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook slowly, stirring frequently, for about 20-30 minutes until the onions are deep brown and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
Take the sourdough or French bread slices and butter one side of each slice using the remaining tablespoon of butter.
On the unbuttered side of two slices, layer half of the Gruyère cheese, followed by a generous layer of caramelized onions, and sprinkle on the mozzarella cheese. Top with the other slices of bread, buttered side facing out.
In the skillet over medium heat, place the assembled sandwich. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. If necessary, cover the skillet to help melt the cheese evenly.
Once done, remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot.
