Supreme Pizza Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Step 1: Preheat a skillet over medium heat on the stovetop. Add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the diced pepperoni, Italian sausage, onion, and green bell pepper until cooked through and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.

Stovetop Directions:

Step 2: Take two slices of bread and spread butter on one side of each slice. Place the bread slices, buttered side down, on a clean surface or plate.

Step 3: Spread pizza sauce on the non-buttered side of each bread slice.

Step 4: Layer shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top of the sauce on each slice.

Step 5: Add the cooked and sautéed pepperoni, Italian sausage, onion, green bell pepper, and any additional desired pizza toppings on one slice of bread.

Step 6: Carefully place the other slice of bread on top, ensuring the buttered side is facing up.

Step 7: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Spread a little butter on the outside of each sandwich.

Step 8: Place the sandwiches, buttered side down, on the skillet or griddle. Cook for about 4-6 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.

Step 9: Carefully flip the sandwiches over using a spatula, and cook for an additional 4-6 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is toasted.

Step 10: Once the sandwiches are cooked, remove them from the skillet or griddle. Let them cool for a minute or two before slicing in half. Serve hot.
