A delightful twist on the classic grilled cheese, featuring black beans, spicy cheese, and caramelized onions.
Heat a skillet over medium heat.
Ensure the skillet is evenly heated for consistent cooking.
Spread butter on one side of each bread slice.
Use softened butter for easier spreading.
Drain and pat dry the black beans using paper towels.
Removing excess moisture helps prevent soggy sandwiches.
Slice the onion thinly and set aside.
Thin slices cook more evenly and quickly.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering cheese, black beans, and onion slices between two slices of bread, buttered sides facing out.
Press the sandwich gently to keep the layers intact.
Cook the sandwiches in the skillet until golden brown on both sides and the cheese is melted.
Flip the sandwich carefully to avoid spilling the filling.
Serve the sandwiches warm and enjoy.
Pair with a side of soup or salad for a complete meal.
