Steps:

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil and brown the chorizo over medium heat until cooked through, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, scoop out the chorizo, and move to a paper-towel-lined plate. Set aside.
In between two pieces of bread, layer the cheese, chorizo, olives, jalapenos and then another layer of cheese. Add some butter to the griddle over medium-low heat, and place the sandwich on the griddle. Add more butter to the top of the bread and cover with a metal bowl until golden on the outside and gooey in the middle, 5 minutes per side. Open the sandwich and place a few tortilla chips inside, then close again.
Cut into quarters, serve with a side of Honey Chipotle Crema, and be prepared to never eat conventional nachos again.
Mix the sour cream, cilantro, honey, chipotle pepper, lime juice and some salt and pepper together, and set aside.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound ground fresh Mexican chorizo
8 slices good quality white bread, such as Arnold Country White Sliced
8 ounces shredded Chihuahua cheese
1/2 cup sliced black olives
1/4 cup pickled jalapenos, sliced
4 tablespoons salted butter, softened
Restaurant-style tortilla chips, such as Donkey corn tortilla chips
Honey Chipotle Crema, recipe follows
1 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon honey or agave
1 chipotle pepper in adobo, minced
1/2 lime, juiced

On-the-Grill Grilled Cheese image

Steps:

For the sandwiches: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
Assemble 4 sandwiches by spreading 2 tablespoons fig jam on 2 of the multigrain slices and 2 of the brioche slices, then adding 2 slices of cheese to each and another slice of the same bread. Spread the butter on both sides of the assembled sandwiches.
Place the sandwiches carefully onto the grates of the grill and grill on each side until the bread has grill marks and the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes per side.
For the salad and dressing: Meanwhile, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, balsamic glaze, honey, salt, pepper and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add the mixed greens, tomatoes and basil to the same bowl and toss to coat.
Serve each sandwich with a side of salad.

Ingredients

1/2 cup fig jam
4 slices multigrain bread (thick, hand-cut)
4 slices brioche bread
8 slices aged Cheddar
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, softened
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon balsamic glaze
1 teaspoon honey
2 pinches salt
2 pinches freshly ground black pepper
1/3 lemon, juiced
One 5-ounce container mixed greens
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup fresh basil, torn
