Habanero Cheddar Grilled Cheese

Smoking Egg

Ingredients

  • 3 medium jalapeño peppers
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Cabot Salted Butter, softened
  • 4 slices multi-grain bread
  • 4 ounces Cabot Hot Habanero Cheddar*, grated (about 1 cup)
  • 2 ounces Cabot Regular Cream Cheese
  • 4 ounces Wholly Guacamole

*Substitute Cabot Chipotle Cheddar for less heat.

Instructions

Makes: 2 servings

Method: Direct grilling

Equipment: Perforated Cooking Grid (optional), Half Moon Cast Iron Griddle

  1. Set the EGG for direct cooking at 350°F/177°C.
  2. Cut the jalapeños in half lengthwise and remove seeds and ribs.
  3. In a small bowl, toss the peppers with olive oil until well coated.
  4. Place the jalapeños skin-side down on the cooking grid or a Perforated Cooking Grid for about 5 minutes, or until the skin is browned and blistered.
  5. Transfer the jalapeños to a small plastic bag to let the skin loosen. When cool enough to handle, remove the skin and chop the peppers.
  6. Butter the outside of each bread slice.
  7. In a bowl, mix the grated cheddar with the cream cheese and spread the mixture on the unbuttered side of two bread slices.
  8. Top each with half of the guacamole and chopped jalapeños.
  9. Add the remaining bread slices, buttered side facing out.
  10. Transfer the sandwiches to a Half Moon Cast Iron Griddle and cook until golden brown on the underside.
  11. Flip and cook until the second side is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  12. Serve warm and enjoy!
