It seems so simple. Two pieces of bread, a slab of butter, and some tasty fillings stacked between. But there's something complex and delicious about a perfectly crispy, grilled sandwich. Whether it's a melty twist on a cheese panini or a meaty grilled chicken sandwich, almost everyone has a favorite grilled sandwich. When nothing else will work, satisfy those cravings with these ultimate grilled sandwich recipes.
Grilled Eggplant Tartines
This entire grilled eggplant sandwich comes together on your grill. Start by grilling thick slices of eggplant until tender, and then grill the sliced baguettes until lightly toasted. Once assembled, this open-face sandwich resembles a cross between Caprese salad and bruschetta with all the flavors of eggplant Parmesan.
Turkey-Apple Grilled Cheese
Thick slices of country-style bread are just the beginning of this hot grilled cheese upgrade. Sauté the sweet onions until they're tender before adding the apple jelly directly to the warm onions. From there, tart, thinly sliced apples make a sweet complement to savory Gouda cheese and roasted turkey in this grilled sandwich.
Bacon-Cheddar Chipotle Chicken Panini
This hearty chicken panini eats like a meal. We slathered whole grain bread with a three-ingredient chipotle cream spread, then piled on the chicken, cheese, bacon, and fresh fixings. Grill it indoors or out—either is delish.
Tomato-Avocado Grilled Cheese
Fresh juicy tomatoes and cumin-laced avocado transform this seemingly simple grilled cheese sandwich into the ultimate grilled avocado sandwich. The flavors may be complex, but the process is not. We love it on hearty whole grain bread with gooey Monterey Jack cheese.
Lemon and Herb Grilled Trout Sandwiches
The best grilled sandwich ideas come together quickly, and our grilled fish sandwich is ready in just 22 minutes. Grilled ciabatta buns add a crunchy base to flaky grilled trout, but it's the homemade mayo mixture that really adds some zing to this fish sandwich. Top the filets with slivers of grilled lemon for a fun touch.
