Lay out the slices of bread. Spread the mustard on one side of two slices and leave the third slice plain. Spread half the butter on the outward-facing side of the mustard-coated slice.
Place the buttered slice, butter-side down, on a clean surface. Layer half the cheese and half the turkey on the mustard-side. Top with the plain slice of bread. Layer the remaining cheese and turkey on the plain slice. Cover with the final mustard-coated slice, mustard-side down. Spread the remaining butter on the very top of the sandwich.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Carefully place the sandwich in the pan. Cover with a lid and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the sandwich, cover again, and cook until the second side is deep golden and the cheese is visibly melted at the edges, about 3 to 4 minutes. Press gently with a spatula once or twice during the final minutes. Done when cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwich from the pan and let it rest for 1 minute. Cut it in half diagonally and serve.
