Ingredients
Scale
- 2 slices of bread
- 2 slices of mozzarella cheese
- 2–3 slices of pepperoni
- 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce
- Butter for grilling
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, prepping for that toasty goodness to come.
- Butter one side of each slice of bread, ensuring that each will have that delicious golden crust once cooked.
- Assemble the sandwich by layering mozzarella cheese on the unbuttered side of one slice. Add pepperoni slices, followed by a generous spoonful of marinara sauce.
- Top with the second slice of bread, butter side up, creating a lovely little sandwich ready for grilling.
- Place the sandwich in the skillet, cooking until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Flip carefully to reveal beautifully melted cheese.
- Once cooked, slice your creation in half and serve hot, perhaps with a side of extra marinara for dipping!
Notes
Pair with a crisp side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
