What you'll need

  • 1 lb croque monsieur
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tsp shallot
  • 1 medium fresh thyme
  • 1 lb dry white wine
  • a pinch kosher salt
  • 4 oz cracked black pepper
  • to taste flaky salt
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the croque monsieur dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the croque monsieur, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
Keep cooking
