Gooey melted cheese, caramelized onions cooked in beer, and salty corned beef make this the perfect St. Patrick's Day grilled cheese.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 tablespoons butter
- 2 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon caraway seeds, optional
- salt and pepper
- 1 cup dark beer, I used Samuel Adams Black Lager
- 8 ounces deli-sliced corn beef, cut into strips
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
- 2 cups shredded Jarlsberg or Fontina cheese
- 8 slices marble rye bread
- butter for grilling sandwiches
Instructions
- Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add onion and sprinkle with sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until soft and golden, stirring occasionally, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Add beer and continue cooking until liquid turns slightly syrupy, about 8 to 10 more minutes. Remove from heat and stir in Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Mix in the corned beef slices.
- On 4 slices of bread, layer the cheese, and corned beef and onion mixture. Top with the remaining 4 slices of bread.
- On a griddle or large pan, melt some butter and grill the sandwiches until lightly browned and crispy on both sides and cheese is melted.
