Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwiches combine the melty, crisp comfort of grilled cheese with the bold, savory flavors of pepperoni pizza—all in one quick, family-friendly meal.
For the Garlic Butter:
- ¼ cup unsalted butter softened
- 4 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
For the Sandwiches:
- 8 thick slices sturdy bread sourdough or Italian work best
- 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup pizza or marinara sauce
- 24 thin slices pepperoni
In a small bowl, stir together the softened butter, parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Set it aside.
Spread pizza sauce on 4 slices of bread. Add mozzarella and 6 pepperoni slices to each. Top with the other bread slices.
Spread the garlic butter on the outside of each sandwich (both sides).
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the sandwiches for 3–4 minutes on each side until golden and the cheese melts.
Let them cool for a minute. Slice and serve with extra marinara for dipping.
