Instructions

Assemble the bread and mozzarella (salt & peppered to your taste) to make 4 sandwiches.
Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture, pressing around the edges to seal in the cheese.
Cover in panko and set aside.
Heat a frying pan on medium with a teaspoon of butter for each sandwich and grill to a golden-brown on all sides.
Set aside on a baking tray.
Once finished place in the oven at 300 F degrees for 5 to 8 min to make sure the mozzarella is melted (keep an eye on this for less or more time).
Warm up your favorite marinara and serve on the side!
