CHEDDAR'S MONTE CRISTO COPYCAT RECIPE | TOP SECRET RECIPES



Cheddar's Monte Cristo Copycat Recipe | Top Secret Recipes image

Menu Description: "Smoked ham, smoked turkey, two cheeses, battered and fried until golden with raspberry preserves and dusted with powdered sugar." When pondering casual chains with the best Monte Cristo sandwiches, two come to mind: Bennigan's and Cheddar's recipes. At each chain the sandwich is built with turkey, ham, and cheese, then it’s battered and fried, dusted with powdered sugar, and served with raspberry preserves for dipping. It probably sounds strange if you've never had one, but Monte Cristo alums know it all tastes pretty darn great together. I hacked Bennigans' version years ago for my cookbook Top Secret Restaurant Recipes 2, and recently, on a trip to Charlotte, North Carolina, I was able to get my hands on Cheddars' signature version of this famous sandwich. I planned for the mission by bringing along a cooler of ice so that I could get a fresh sample safely back home. Once I was back in the lab in Vegas, I subjected the sandwich to a series of tasty tests, burned through several versions of batter, and eventually assembled this new Cheddar's Monte Cristo copycat recipe that I think is even better than my previous Bennigan's hack. The better batter is the big secret here—it's light and crispy and perfectly golden brown, and the sandwich features two kinds of cheese, both white and yellow American. Will this be the best Monte Cristo you've ever had? You’re about to find out.

MONTE CRISTO SANDWICH WITH CHEDDAR - COOKING WITH TYANNE



Monte Cristo Sandwich with Cheddar - Cooking with Tyanne image

This monte cristo sandwich is nothing like the movie, but it sure tastes yummy! 15 minute lunch recipe is easy to make and one of my best sandwich recipes.

Provided by Tyanne

Categories     Main Course

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 5 minutes

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tbsp butter
4 slices of bread
2 eggs
salt
pepper
mayo to spread
mustard to spread
4 slices of deli ham
2 slices of cheese of your choice (I used chipotle cheddar)

Steps:

  • On a plate, spread mayo and mustard on one side of each slice of bread. Place 2 slices of deli ham and 1 slice of cheese onto two of the slices of bread. Assemble with the remaining two slices of bread to create the sandwich. Press sandwiches down with a skillet so they are more flat. This will help them stay together when doing the egg mixture.
  • Fry butter in a large skillet over medium heat to melt it. While the butter is frying, in a small bowl that fits the bread, whisk together eggs and a dash of salt and pepper.
  • When butter is melted and skillet hot, dip both sides of one of the sandwiches into the egg mixture. Transfer from egg mixture to skillet. I would recommend doing this quickly so the bread does not get too soggy. Repeat with the remaining sandwich.
  • Cook sandwiches until golden brown on each side. I like mine on the lighter side so it was about 3-4 minutes.
  • Cut and serve your Monte Cristos.

  • Bake the bacon on a broiler pan or a rack set over a baking sheet at 375 degrees until just crisp, about 20 minutes. Arrange 4 slices of bread with some cheese and the apples on top. Beat the eggs with the milk (or half-and-half) and a little nutmeg. Heat a large griddle pan over medium heat. When ready, arrange 3 slices of bacon on each sandwich and top with a little more cheese and 4 more slices of bread. Coat each sandwich in the egg batter. Grease the griddle with butter and griddle the sandwiches until deep golden on each side and the cheese has melted. Halve the sandwiches and drizzle with a little warm syrup.

  • Assemble four sandwiches using bread, meats, and cheeses. Set aside. In medium mixing bowl (I use a square casserole dish), combine egg, water, milk, salt, sugar, flour, baking powder & mustard. Beat well. Heat about 1" of oil in deep skillet (I use a large iron skillet). Dip your sandwiches into the coating mixture, I like to get them well soaked. They will be drippy -- try to drain off a bit, carefully slide into the hot oil. Repeat with remaining sandwiches. When nicely browned, gently flip over & brown other side. Remove to paper towels. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Let cool a few minutes before cutting so the cheese doesn't ooze out. Cut each sandwich into four fingers for easy dipping. Serve with syrup or jam.
