- Continue to cook until all the liquid has evaporated.
- Transfer the onions to a bowl and reserve.
- Butter 1 side of each bread slice.
- Lay 6 slices butter-side down on a work surface.
- Top each with 2 slices of Gruyere, a dollop of the onions and 2 more slices of Gruyere.
- Top with another slice of bread, butter-side up.
- Heat a cast-iron griddle over medium heat.
- Add the sandwiches and cook until the cheese begins to melt and the bread is golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes.
- Flip and continue to cook until golden brown and the cheese is melted through, 2 to 4 minutes.
- Cut in half and serve immediately.
