For a richer flavor, try using roasted garlic butter instead of regular garlic butter. Fresh mozzarella can be substituted for provolone for a different flavor profile. A sprinkle of red pepper flakes in the marinara sauce adds a touch of heat. If you don't have a microwave, the marinara can be warmed gently in a small saucepan on the stovetop. Consider adding a few fresh basil leaves to the sandwich before grilling for extra flavor. Use a panini press for evenly toasted sandwiches. For extra crispy bread, brush the outside of the sandwich with a little olive oil before grilling.
