Step 1
Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Grease an 8-inch baking pan.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese has melted and starts to turn brown, about 7 minutes.

Cook’s Notes:

Please play with the measurements! I don't usually measure when I cook and do a lot of "sprinkling," "covering," and "to taste". So measurements for this recipe have been eyeballed from experience.
