Best grilled cheese or melt sandwich was created by Fred Ginsburg

Many of you know that besides being a Cowboy Action Shooter, another of my hobbies is watching the
Food Network, and playing at Chef.

Here's a simple trick for making your grilled cheese, or other melt, a thing of perfection.

Smear the OUTSIDE of the bread with a thin coating of mayonnaise. Then grill or panini your sandwich. The mayo consists of egg and oil, along with a vinegar or citrus juice. It is the secret to a rich, golden crust with a deep flavor. Much better than just using plain butter or olive oil.

Another cool trick to do with mayo is for making panini or George Foreman parmesan crusted chicken. Start with some fresh (or thawed) chicken tenders. Sprinkle them with salt & pepper. Roll them lightly in some mayo, coating them evenly. Then roll them around in a dry mixture of: panko or crustini bread crumbs, some freshly grated parmesan reggiano cheese, and some italian seasoning.

Ready for the hot press or grill.

A few minutes later you will have a golden brown, moist, piece of parmesan crusted chicken cutlet. Eat it as is, or add some marinara sauce & pasta. Perfect for those evenings when you don't have the time to make a proper chicken parmesan.
