Sizzler Cheese Toast Recipe
Sizzler Cheese Toast is a beloved classic from the Sizzler restaurant chain. This simple yet delicious toast features a crispy, golden-brown exterior with a cheesy, buttery topping. It's perfect as a side dish, snack, or appetizer and can easily be made at home with just a few ingredients.
Ingredients
- 4 slices of thick white bread Texas toast or similar
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup softened butter unsalted
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder optional
Instructions
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Prepare the Cheese Mixture:
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, grated Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder (if using) until well combined.
Spread the Cheese Mixture:
- Spread a generous amount of the cheese and butter mixture evenly over one side of each slice of bread. Make sure to cover the entire surface for maximum flavor.
Preheat the Skillet or Griddle:
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. You can also use a non-stick pan to prevent sticking.
Cook the Cheese Toast:
- Place the bread slices cheese-side down on the preheated skillet or griddle.
- Cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and crispy. Keep an eye on the toast to prevent burning.
- Flip the bread slices and toast the other side for an additional 1-2 minutes until lightly browned.
Serve:
- Remove the cheese toast from the skillet and place it on a cutting board.
- Slice each piece of toast diagonally into halves or quarters, if desired.
- Serve the Sizzler Cheese Toast hot, as a side dish, snack, or appetizer.
Notes
Tips:
- For extra flavor, you can sprinkle a little paprika or dried parsley on the cheese mixture before spreading it on the bread.
- If you prefer a different type of cheese, you can substitute the Parmesan with a mix of shredded mozzarella and cheddar.
- To make this recipe in an oven, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake the bread cheese-side up on a baking sheet for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
