Adobo Grilled Cheese

INGREDIENTS

Servings: 4 • Prep: 5 minutes • Cook: 20 minutes

Fresh lime juice	2 Tbsp.
Honey	1 tsp.
Olive oil, divided	3 Tbsp.
Spicelopedia™ Chili Lime Adobo seasoning	1 tsp.
Fresh cilantro, chopped	½ cup
Small red onion, thinly sliced	1
Adobo sauce	1 Tbsp.
Brown sugar	2 tsp.
Country white bread, thick slices	8 slices
Extra-sharp white cheddar, coarsely grated	8 oz.
Cooked bacon	8 slices

STEPS

1. In a medium bowl, add the lime juice, honey, 1 tbsp. of the olive oil, and the Spicelopedia™ Chili Lime Adobo seasoning. Whisk to combine.
2. Add the cilantro and red onions to the lime-honey mixture and let them marinate until ready to use.
3. In a small bowl, add the adobo sauce and brown sugar and whisk to combine.
4. Brush one side of each slice of bread with the remaining 2 Tbsp. of olive oil.
5. Build sandwiches by layering ingredients evenly: bread (oiled side out), adobo mixture, cheese, bacon, and the onion-cilantro mixture.
6. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. In batches, add sandwiches to the skillet and cover.
7. Cook, flipping once, until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted, about 3–4 minutes per side.
