Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Sausage Patty

In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Add the Italian sausage, breaking it apart with a spatula. Season with red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

2. Assemble the Sandwich

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). On a baking sheet, place two slices of Vienna bread. Spread a generous amount of tomato sauce on each slice. Place the cooked sausage patty on top of one slice, then cover it with the other slice of bread.

3. Add Cheese and Bake

Top the sandwich with additional tomato sauce and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

4. Serve

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Slice in half and serve warm.
