Chile Relleno Sandwich


A delicious cousin of the Chile Relleno.   A  grilled  cheese sandwich that gets a flavor boost from a  green chile cheese spread.  Dip the sandwich in an egg batter and fry in some butter and you have yourself a great tasting lunch.  You can serve it with some salsa or a cup of hot soup.


Chile Rellano Sandwich

Ingredients:
1/2 cup Green Chile Cheese Spread - you can find the recipe here
4 slices of sandwich bread
1 large egg
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter

Directions:

1. Spread 1/4 cup of the Green Chile Cheese Spread on a slice of bread.  Top the spread with another slice of bread. Repeat with the remaining bread and cheese spread.   Set aside.
2. In a bowl, whisk the egg and milk together until blended.
3. In a large skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.  Dip both sides of the sandwich in the egg mixture.

  2. Really! It sounds great and is a must try. Chile Rellenos is the best and I can imagine how oozy cheesy delicious that sandwich has to be. Perfect lunch for this cold weather.
