Italian Recipes - Shortcut Meatball Panini Recipe

Method :

Preheat the broiler. In a large saucepan combine meatballs and pizza sauce. Cover and cook over medium-low heat about 10 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally.

Cut a thin slice from the top of each roll; hollow out each roll leaving a 1/4- to 1/2-inch-thick shell. (Discard or save bread from rolls for another use).

Place hollowed-out rolls and roll tops, cut sides up, on a baking sheet. Broil 3 to 4 inches from the heat for 1 to 2 minutes or until lightly toasted. Remove roll tops from baking sheet.

Spoon meatballs and sauce into toasted rolls. Top with provolone cheese. Broil about 1 minute more or until cheese is melted.

To serve, arrange basil or spinach leaves on top of cheese and replace roll tops.
