Grilled Cheese

    • Preheat a skillet to medium-high heat.
    • Butter one side of each slice of bread.
  • Working one or two at a time, add bread, buttered side down into the skillet. While it is cooking, top with ½ cup shredded beef, about 1 tablespoon of white onions, ¼ cup queso fresco, ¼ cup mozzarella, cilantro, and another slice of bread, buttered side up.
  • Cook over medium-low heat for 5-7 minutes; then, flip over the sandwich and cook another 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown. (If it seems like the bread is taking a long time to brown, be patient, as the cheese inside needs time to melt.) Use a spatula to remove from the skillet.
  • Serve with leftover juices from the slow cooker for dipping.

Notes

*If using store-bought or premade shredded beef (Birria) the time to make this sandwich is about 20 minutes.
