Grilled Cheese with Chipotle Mayo and Bacon
RECIPE COURTESY OF KATIE LEE
Level: Easy
Total: 20 min
Active: 20 min
Yield: 2 sandwiches

Ingredients

1 teaspoon honey
1 canned chipotle pepper in adobo (if you like spicy, add an additional 1/2 teaspoon or more of the adobo sauce)
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 slices white bread
4 thick slices processed American cheese
4 slices cooked bacon
Sweet pickles, for serving
Potato chips, for serving

Directions

Put the honey, chipotle pepper, 1/2 cup of the mayonnaise and some salt and pepper in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.

Heat a large heavy skillet or griddle over medium heat.

Place the bread on a work surface and spread the remaining 2 tablespoons mayonnaise on both sides of each slice. On the inside of 2 slices, spread on the chipotle mayonnaise to your liking, adding more if you prefer it spicy. Top each sandwich with 2 slices cheese, 2 slices bacon and a remaining bread slice.

Cook the sandwiches until the cheese is completely melted and the bread is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. You can use a metal mixing bowl to dome the sandwiches and allow the cheese to melt faster. Slice the sandwiches in half and serve immediately with sweet pickles and potato chips.
