Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwich (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Butter Mixture

01 - ½ cup unsalted butter, very soft

02 - 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder

04 - ½ teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

→ For Assembly

05 - 8 slices white bread

06 - 12 slices mozzarella cheese

07 - 6 ounces pepperoni

08 - Warm pizza sauce for dipping

# Instructions:

01 - In a medium-sized bowl, mix butter, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning until smooth and well combined.

02 - Spread the butter mixture evenly over one side of each bread slice. Lay the slices butter-side up on a sheet tray until ready for use.

03 - Place a slice of bread butter-side down in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add a slice of mozzarella cheese, followed by 6 slices of pepperoni, another slice of mozzarella cheese, 6 more slices of pepperoni, and a final slice of mozzarella. Top with another slice of bread, butter-side up.

04 - Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the bottom slice of bread is golden brown, about 3–5 minutes. Flip the sandwich carefully, cover again, and cook the other side until golden brown and the cheese melts. Repeat for remaining sandwiches.

05 - Serve immediately with warm pizza sauce for dipping and enjoy.

# Notes:

01 - Cook sandwiches in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.

02 - Place finished sandwiches on a wire rack over a sheet tray to keep them crispy.

03 - Feel free to substitute bread or use different types of cheese, such as provolone or Parmesan.

04 - These sandwiches can be frozen for later use.
