This Italian marinated grilled cheese is made by briefly marinating three kinds of cheese in a quick oil and vinegar dressing, and including a few things you typically find in antipasto. It’s a new and amazing twist on the classic grilled cheese sandwich. Enjoy!

  1. Oh no… Did people stop loving pointy foods, Chef John? We trust you to keep us informed about these things.

  2. Im sorry, a grilled cheese consists of 3 ingredients, bread, cheese, and a sprrad like butter or mayo….that is a cheese and vegetable sandwich.. not a grilled cheese.

  3. I wanna see how this turns out if you grill it inside out too… That was one of my favorite tips and I use it almost every sandwich

  4. You're my hero Chey Jay. Instead of oil or butter for the bread when cooking I just lather each grilling side of the bread with some mayo.

  5. I added parmesan….

    Grill your sandwich, LIGHTLY butter the grilled surface and press into VERY finely grated parmesan or related cheese. Re-grill … careful not to burn.
    A side dip of a zesty sauce is 👍 too.

  6. I like your cheese choice way better than the "viral" choice. This looks SO good!! I'm making this soon!

  7. I feel old, when I actually remember your inside-out sandwich with cheese outside recipe…. Good job chef 🙂

  8. I love grilled cheese, and adding Italian flavors sounds like a game-changer! Definitely trying this out soon.

  9. I got hooked on you from the inside-out grilled cheese, all those years ago. Thanks for the decade + of cheesiness, Chef John

  10. Chef John, what would you think about a side dish of warm marinara for dipping? Beautiful colors in this sandwich;)

  11. Good lord the sound of cutting that sandwich was the worst. Like dragging rusted nails on a chalk board. What is this? Two giant croutons with some cheese between them? Sounded like you could break your teeth on that thing.

  12. What a delicious 😋 looking 👀 Italian 🇮🇹 grilled cheese 🧀 sandwich 🥪! One of my favorites is grilled Swiss on rye with caramelized onions!
