Original Recipe Yield 6 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 12 slices white bread
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 (8 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 (24 ounce) jar vodka marinara sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven's broiler.
  2. Place 6 slices of bread onto a baking sheet. Spread a small handful of the mozzarella cheese over each slice. Top with the remaining 6 slices of bread. Mix together the butter and garlic powder, brush some over the tops of the sandwiches, or spread with the back of a tablespoon. Sprinkle with dried oregano.
  3. Place baking sheet under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown. Remove pan from oven, flip sandwiches, and brush the other sides with butter, and sprinkle with oregano. Return to the broiler, and cook until golden, about 2 minutes.
  4. Cut sandwiches in half diagonally, and serve immediately with vodka sauce on the side for dipping.
