Jalapeño Grilled Cheese
I've always liked my grilled cheese a little spicy, when I was a kid it was a plain grilled cheese with a side of chili sauce. Today, it is a little upgraded with jalapeño cream cheese and some spicy chutney! This recipe is spicy in all the right ways with a creamy, cooling effect of the cream cheese. You can mix it up a bunch of different ways with different chutneys and spreads, but this is my favorite! I serve it up with a whole bunch of air-fried curly fries and a tall glass of soda with lots of ice! Check out the recipe and let me know what you think!

- 2 slices White Sandwich Bread
- 2 slices Pepper Jack Cheese
- 1 tbsp Green Cilantro and Chili Chutney
- 1 tbsp Jalapeño Cream Cheese any flavor you like is great!
- ghee/butter/oil for toasting the bread
- water for steaming
Spread ghee/butter on one side of each slice of bread. On the other side of one slice spread cream cheese, and on the other slice spread chutney.
Put the butter side down in a large pan on medium heat. Once the bread is very lightly toasted, add your cheese to one side. I like to cut it up into quarters and layer the cheese. Pour a splash of water (about 1-2 tbsp.), and cover the pan immediately.
Once the cheese is melted, close your sandwich and continuously flip your sandwich until it is an even golden brown all the way around.
