Warm a skillet over medium-low heat. Put the sandwich in without any oil and cover it. Let it cook for 5-6 minutes until the bottom turns golden. Flip it carefully, cover again, and toast until the other side browns and cheese melts. Serve hot.

Cooking slowly at lower heat makes sure your sandwich browns evenly and lets the cheese melt all the way through.
