Grilled Turkey Sandwich with Cheddar Cheese & Red Peppers

Grilled Turkey Sandwich

Who doesn’t love a grilled cheese sandwich? Here is one of my favorites adding in cooked turkey or chicken.

• 2 thick slices of turkey – Enough to cover a slice of bread

– I like to use left over chicken or turkey breast meat for this sandwich

• Mayonnaise, my favorite is Mayo with Olive oil

• Sour dough bread or whole wheat bread

• 2 Roasted red peppers, Fresh roasted on the grill is great, but I like to keep a jar on hand specially in the winter months. Slice each open and remove the seeds so the pepper will lay flat on the sandwich

•  2 slices Cheddar Cheese, thinly sliced. I use white cheddar, who needs the coloring? Also less is better with this sandwich

– If you are using a large cube of fresh cheese slice several pieces to fit the bread. I find that cheddar cheese really compliments the turkey and roasted red peppers

• Non-stick cooking spray or a butter

• Spray non-stick cooking spray on a large griddle or skillet

• Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread

• Layer 1 slice of cheese, turkey and red peppers, 2^nd slice of cheese on the bread and place the second slice on top to create a sandwich. I like to build this sandwich with cheese on each slice of bread which melts perfectly

• Over medium heat place the sandwich on the griddle and cook for approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Using a spatula to lift the sandwich and carefully flip to cook the other side. The second side usually cooks faster so be careful to watch closely

Everyone has a preference on what properly “toasted” is. The bread should be brown per your taste and those you are cooking for, don’t burn!

• Remove from heat, wait a minute or two so you don’t burn your mouth

Slice and enjoy a delicious sandwich!

Great with fresh fruit, sliced carrots, celery or slices of cucumber!
