Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Heat a large frying pan on the stovetop.
You can either butter your bread or drizzle olive oil into pan.
Buid your sandwich, butter one side of bread then flip to unbuttered side and spread a bit of pesto to cover the bread. Next add thin slices of prosciutto followed by shredded mozzarella cheese. Place other slice of bread on top and butter.
Gently place bread onto hot frying pan and cover pan with lid. This helps melt the cheese quicker. Once one side of bread is browned, flip to other side and do the same. Once both sides are browned and cheese is melted remove from pan and enjoy.
