White Cheddar and Fig Grilled Cheese

I'm
pretty much in love with grilled cheese sandwiches.  There are so many

Cheddar and Fig Grilled Cheese









Sourdough
bread, sliced




White
cheddar, grated




Fig
jam




Baby
Arugula




Balsamic
Reduction




Butter,
softened









Balsamic
Reduction









1/2
cup balsamic vinegar









In
a small saucepan bring vinegar to a boil.  Reduce heat to a simmer and
cook until vinegar has thickened and is syrupy.  Season with salt and
pepper.  Set aside.









Assemble
sandwich:  Heat skillet over medium heat.  Spread fig jam on one
slice of bread.  Top the other slice of bread with grated white cheddar
followed by baby arugula and a drizzle of reduced balsamic vinegar.  Top
the arugula side of the sandwich with the fig side to make a sandwich. 
Butter both sides of the sandwich and grill until both sides are golden brown
and the cheese is melty goodness.
