Pickled pineapple & sriracha grilled cheese

 



This unique grilled cheese sandwich combines the sweetness of pickled pineapple with the heat of Sriracha, creating a delightful flavor explosion. Here’s how to make it.


#### Ingredients


- **2 slices of bread** (your choice, such as sourdough or whole grain)

- **1 cup shredded cheese** (such as sharp cheddar or mozzarella)

- **1/2 cup pickled pineapple**, chopped

- **1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce** (adjust to taste)

- **1 tablespoon butter** (for grilling)

- **Optional**: Fresh cilantro or mint for garnish


#### Instructions


1. **Prepare the Pickled Pineapple:**

   - If you don't have pickled pineapple, you can make it by slicing fresh pineapple and soaking it in a mixture of vinegar, sugar, and spices for a few hours or overnight.


2. **Mix the Sriracha:**

   - In a small bowl, combine the chopped pickled pineapple with Sriracha sauce. Adjust the amount of Sriracha based on your preferred spice level.


3. **Assemble the Sandwich:**

   - Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.

   - On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer half of the cheese, followed by the Sriracha-pickled pineapple mixture, and then top with the remaining cheese. Place the second slice of bread on top, buttered side facing out.


4. **Grill the Sandwich:**

   - Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the sandwich in the skillet.

   - Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy. Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until golden and the cheese is melted.


5. **Serve:**

   - Remove from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing. Optionally, garnish with fresh cilantro or mint for an extra burst of flavor.
