These homemade patty melts are irresistible, with silky onions, gooey cheese, and toasted rye bread. We don’t use a traditional caramelization method for the onions; instead, we cook them over medium-high heat the entire time so they not only get buttery soft but also deliciously charred in places with less fat in less time.
