Pizza Grilled Cheese Ingredients

Method

Pizza Grilled Cheese Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all the ingredients and prepare them for cooking. Slice the mozzarella cheese if it is not pre-shredded.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Take two slices of sourdough bread and spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on one side of each slice. On top of the sauce, layer half of the mozzarella cheese, followed by pepperoni slices, and then the remaining mozzarella cheese. Place the second slice of bread on top, sauce side down, to create a sandwich.

  3. 3

    Season the Outside

    Drizzle olive oil on the outside of the sandwich and sprinkle Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper on both sides of the sandwich.

  4. 4

    Cook the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the assembled sandwich in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the bottom is golden brown. Carefully flip the sandwich and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side until golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the sandwich from the skillet, let it cool for a minute, then slice in half and serve with additional pizza sauce for dipping.
