Adult Grilled Cheese
A most creative, award-winning delicious sandwich
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh ground pork
- ½ cup Saucy Mama Sweet Heat Marinade
- ¼ cup chopped scallions
- 2 cups sliced (½-inch thick) napa cabbage
- ¼ cup fresh shredded carrots
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Saucy Mama Miso Orange Sesame Dressing & Marinade
- 4 tablespoons soft butter
- 8 slices Italian bread with sesame seeds
- 16 deli slices pepper Jack cheese
Instructions
- In skillet, over medium-high heat, brown pork, breaking up with a wooden spoon, until fully cooked.
- Drain off all drippings in pan (I like to pour the meat into a fine mesh sieve over a heat-proof bowl.) Return pork to skillet.
- Add Sweet Heat Marinade, stirring until pork is fully glazed and sauce has reduced. Remove from heat.
- Stir in scallions; set aside and keep warm.
- In medium bowl, toss cabbage, carrots, cilantro and Miso Orange Sesame Dressing; set aside.
- Butter one side of each bread slice. Place bread, butter side down on griddle type skillet. Top each bread slice with 2 slices of cheese.
- Layer only 4 bread slices with an even amount of pork mixture on top of the cheese.
- Turn heat to medium-low. Cover skillet and cook until cheese begins to melt, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Remove cover. Top pork mixture with an even amount of cabbage mixture.
- Using a spatula, flip 1 bread slice, with just the cheese, over the top of each pork-slaw sandwich, placing it cheese side down.
- Gently press sandwich together and continue cooking until cheese is melted and sandwich is toasted.
