Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Egg Wash: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Assemble the Sandwich: Place the slice of mozzarella cheese on one of the bread slices. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the mozzarella. Next, layer the quartered grape tomatoes on top of the feta. Cover with the second slice of bread.
  3. Dip the Sandwich: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. While the skillet is heating up, dip the assembled sandwich into the egg wash, ensuring both sides are coated.
  4. Grill the Sandwich: Once the butter is melted and bubbling, place the egg-coated sandwich in the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheeses are melted and gooey.
  5. Serve: Remove the sandwich from the skillet and let it cool for a minute before slicing in half. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
