Directions Make a meatball boat
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, eggs, and breadcrumbs. A quarter cup of parsley, 3 garlic cloves, salt and pepper. Shape the ground meat mixture into balls the size of golf balls.
Heat a cast iron skillet or skillet with oil over medium to high heat.
Cook the meatballs until golden brown. Transfer the meatballs to a plate then remove the pan from the heat. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Place the soft buns on the baking tray. Use a knife to cut off the top of the roll and press it inward to create a boat shape.
Mix the melted butter with 3 cloves of garlic and 2 tablespoons of parsley.
Spread garlic butter over the roll. Bake for 5 minutes or until toasted.
Place two slices of mozzarella on the roll. Spread a spoonful of marinara over the cheese.
