Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

Instructions:

  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread.
  3. Lay two slices of bread butter-side down. Spread pizza sauce over the top, then layer with half the mozzarella, pepperoni, oregano, and remaining cheese.
  4. Top with the other bread slices, buttered side facing up.
  5. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and grill for 3–4 minutes per side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
  6. Remove from skillet, slice in half, and serve with warm pizza sauce on the side for dipping.

Variations :

  • Try adding sautéed mushrooms, green peppers, or onions for a supreme-style sandwich.
  • Substitute mozzarella with provolone or a pizza blend for extra depth.
  • Use marinara sauce instead of pizza sauce for a smoother tomato flavor.
  • Make it vegetarian by skipping the pepperoni and adding olives or spinach.

Tips :

  • Don’t rush the grilling—medium heat ensures a crispy crust without burning the bread before the cheese melts.
  • For a garlic-kissed crust, mix minced garlic into the butter before spreading.
  • Use thick-cut bread to hold up to all the fillings without getting soggy.
  • For extra crunch, toast the bread slightly before assembling the sandwich.
