Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 Hawaiian rolls
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Optional Add-ins

  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Crispy bacon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally without cutting completely through to keep the halves attached.
  2. Butter the Rolls: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Spread butter on the inside surfaces of each roll to ensure a golden, crispy exterior when grilled.
  3. Assemble the Sandwiches: Place the bottom halves of the buttered Hawaiian rolls onto the skillet. Generously fill each with shredded Monterey Jack cheese. If desired, add sliced tomatoes or crispy bacon at this stage. Press down slightly with the top halves to bring together the sandwich.
  4. Grill the Sandwiches: Cook the sandwiches on medium heat for about 3 to 4 minutes on one side until golden brown. Carefully flip and grill the other side for an additional 3 to 4 minutes, ensuring the cheese melts thoroughly and the bread is crispy on both sides.
  5. Serve Hot: Once grilled, remove the sandwiches from the skillet, slice if desired, and serve immediately to enjoy the gooey, melty goodness.

Notes

  • Use a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and uneven cooking.
  • Adjust heat as needed to avoid burning while ensuring cheese melts.
  • Optional add-ins like bacon or tomatoes can add flavor and texture.
  • Butter the rolls generously for the best crispy, golden crust.
  • Serve immediately for best taste and texture.
