The BEST Grilled Cheese Sandwich ever!!

A tip of the skillet to Paula Dean with a little Charon twist. OMIGOODNESS!!

Ingredients:
Two slices of your favorite white bread, a little thicker slice works best
1 slice of extra sharp cheddar cheese, large enough to cover slice of bread
3 Thick cut strips of smoked bacon, cooked and drained on paper towel
3 Slices Granny Smith apple, cored and sliced thin
1/2 small red onion, chopped fine
2 TBS butter
1/4 C. Real Mayonnaise
Small palm full of fresh cilantro chopped (size of dollar bill folded twice)
Pinch of salt and pepper

In skillet, saute red onion in 1 TBS butter till it becomes translucent and just starting to brown. Remove from skillet a mix with mayonnaise, cilantro, salt and pepper, set aside.

Assemble sandwich:
Butter outside of one slice of bread, then on inside of slice spread mayonnaise mixture. Layer one slice of cheese, three strips of bacon, three slices of apple, then top with the other slice of bread prepared as above with butter on the outside and mayonnaise on the inside. Grill in skillet to your desired darkness, enough to slightly melt the cheese.
