Cuisinart GR-3 - Manual (Page 11)

11
1 ounce Brie, cold, cut into 2 equal pieces
½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Place the herbes de Provence, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir to blend; reserve.
Using a sharp knife, cut a horizontal slit in the side of one fillet; carefully cut into the center to
create a pocket – do not cut all the way through to the sides. Repeat for the other fillet. Place ½
ounce of the cheese in each pocket – press the open sides together tightly. Drizzle the fillets with
the olive oil and rub in to coat completely and evenly. Sprinkle the herb mixture on both sides
and press into the fillet. Refrigerate for 20 to 30 minutes before grilling. (Fillets may be prepared
up to 8 hours ahead and refrigerated).
Preheat the Cuisinart
® Griddler ™ Jr. in the closed position to high. Arrange the fillets evenly
spaced on the preheated grill. Close; apply light pressure to handle for about 20 seconds. Grill
until fillets have reached desired level of doneness when tested with an instant-read thermometer
(about 125°F is best). Meat will continue to cook an extra 5°F while resting. Remove immediately.
Let meat rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
