Ingredients
- 8 slices Sturdy sandwich bread
- 1 cup Pizza sauce
- 2 cups Shredded low-moisture mozzarella
Instructions
- Heat a cast-iron skillet, griddle, or campfire sandwich iron over moderate heat.
- Lay out four slices of bread. Spread each with approximately 2 tablespoons pizza sauce.
- Divide mozzarella evenly over the sauce. Top with the remaining bread slices.
- If using a nonstick sandwich iron or well-seasoned skillet, cook directly. Place sandwiches onto the hot cooking surface.
- Cook approximately 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
- Reduce heat if the bread browns faster than the cheese melts. Cover the skillet briefly with foil or a lid if needed to trap heat.
- Remove when the cheese is fully melted. Rest approximately 1 minute. Slice and serve.

Chef's Notes
LOW-MOISTURE MOZZARELLA: It melts cleanly without making the sandwich watery. SAUCE: Do not overload the bread with sauce. OPTIONAL VARIATIONS: Pepperoni, cooked sausage, sliced olives, or red pepper flakes can be added, but the core recipe is genuinely 3 ingredients.
