Instructions
Build the Sandwich
Spread pesto on the inner side of all four bread slices. Layer two slices of provolone and 2 ounces of turkey on the pesto side of two bread slices then close each sandwich.
Butter the Bread
Spread softened butter evenly on the outside of both sides of each sandwich for an even golden crust.
Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium heat and place sandwiches in the pan. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side pressing gently with a spatula until the bread is deep golden and the cheese is fully melted.
Slice and Serve
Remove from heat and let sit for 1 minute before slicing diagonally. Serve hot with a side of soup or simple salad.
