Description
This grilled cheese brings the heat and the comfort. Creamy, spicy, melty, and crisp, it’s loaded with jalapeños, cheese, and smoky bacon, all between slices of golden sourdough. It’s indulgent, flavorful, and wildly satisfying.
Ingredients
4 slices sourdough bread
4 oz cream cheese (softened)
1 cup shredded cheddar or pepper jack cheese
2 jalapeños (seeded and sliced thin)
4 slices cooked bacon (optional but amazing)
2 tbsp butter (for grilling)
Optional: pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika
Instructions
Spread cream cheese on one side of each slice of bread.
Top two slices with shredded cheese, jalapeño slices, and bacon.
Sprinkle a bit of garlic powder or paprika if using.
Top with remaining bread slices, cream cheese side down.
Butter the outsides and grill in a skillet over medium heat, 3–4 mins per side, until golden and melty.
Slice and serve hot!
