1 cup (4 ounces) drunken goat cheese, grated

Baby arugula

Butter, room temperature

Roasted Shallot Mayo:

1 shallot, peeled

1 clove garlic, peeled

Olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 cup mayonnaise

Directions

  1. Heat a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat.
  2. Spread each bread slice with Roasted Shallot Mayo. Add layers of grated goat cheese, a small handful arugula, and finish with more grated cheese, then top with bread. Repeat for the second sandwich.
  3. Add the sandwiches to the hot skillet and cook until golden brown and crisp and the cheese is melted, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Cut the sandwich in 1/2 before serving.

  2. Place the shallot and garlic on a square of aluminum foil. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fold up and seal the foil. Place in the oven and roast for 1 hour. Remove and let cool.

Can’t always find “drunken/whiny” goat cheese, but when I do, yum yum. Best with Gina’s Roasted red pepper/tomato soup.
