On one side of each bread halves (the lower sandwich side), spread on about 1/4 Cup of Ragú® sauce.
Top with chicken and spread remaining sauce over the chicken.
Place fresh mozzarella slices over the chicken & sauce and top with fresh basil leaves.
On the other open side of the sandwich, spread 2 TBSP butter, about 1 tsp of garlic powder and 1/4 C of shredded Parmesan cheese. Repeat for other sandwich half.
Return to oven for approximately 10-12 minutes, until heated through and cheeses start to melt.
Once down, remove from oven and folder over like a sandwich. Cut into slices and serve warm.
