Ingredients
- 4 slices firm white or wheat bread
- 1 teaspoons Dijon-style mustard
- 2 thin slices smoked deli ham
- 2 thin slices deli turkey
- 2 slices Swiss, Cheddar or Gouda cheese (may use reduced fat)
- 1 large egg, lightly beaten
- ¼ cup milk (whole, reduced fat, lowfat or fat free)
- kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon melted unsalted butter
Preparation
- Preheat Cuisinart™ Griddler™ fitted with the griddle plated in the closed griddle position to 375°F.
- Divide and layer the ham, turkey, and cheese to make two sandwiches.
- Place the egg, milk, salt, and pepper to taste in a small bowl and whisk until smooth. Dip the sandwiches into the egg and milk mixture and soak briefly to coat. Brush on both sides evenly with melted butter.
- Place sandwiches on bottom plate. Close Griddler™ and apply medium pressure for 10 seconds. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until bread is browned and crispy, and filling is warmed.
- Remove sandwiches using a heatproof plastic spatula and allow to rest for 3 to 5 minutes before cutting and serving.
