Total time: 13 min • Prep: 3 min • Cook: 10 min • Serves: 1 • Difficulty: Easy
The classic comfort food gets kicked up with kimchi (a Korean pickled condiment made from cabbage, spices, and garlic) and balanced with cream cheese. Hitting that sweet spot of perfectly golden bread and gooey, melty cheese sometimes takes finessing! If your bread is browning too quickly, lower the heat and cover the pan to help melt the cheese without burning the bread.
