Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich Filling
  • 8 oz Sliced Turkey Breast Use tender, thinly sliced turkey for a juicy, lean protein boost.
  • 4 oz Brie Cheese Choose a creamy brie that melts beautifully.
  • 1/4 cup Cranberry Sauce Adds a festive tang and natural sweetness.
For the Bread & Butter
  • 4 slices Sourdough Bread Crisps up perfectly with a slightly tangy flavor.
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter Butter the bread generously for a golden crust.
Optional Add-ins
  • 1 tsp Fresh Thyme Adds a subtle herbaceous note.
  • 1 pinch Black Pepper Balances the sweet and creamy flavors.

Equipment

  • Nonstick skillet
  • Spatula
  • cutting board

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat griddle: Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat until shimmering hot, about 5 minutes.
  2. Butter bread: Spread an even layer of unsalted butter on one side of each sourdough slice.
  3. Assemble sandwich: On the unbuttered sides, layer sliced turkey, Brie wedges, and cranberry sauce.
  4. Grill first side: Place sandwich buttered-side down on the preheated skillet. Cook until golden brown, about 3–4 minutes.
  5. Flip & finish: Carefully turn the sandwich, then press again. Cook until Brie is melted, another 3–4 minutes.
  6. Rest & slice: Transfer melt to a cutting board and let it rest for one minute. Slice diagonally for triangular halves.
