Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Lightly spread unsalted butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
Place two slices of bread, buttered side down, onto a clean surface. Spread 2 tablespoons of marinara sauce evenly on the unbuttered side of each slice.
Sprinkle 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese on top of the marinara sauce on each slice of bread.
Lay 6 slices of pepperoni over the cheese on each slice, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
Sprinkle a pinch of dried oregano and garlic powder over the pepperoni for added flavor.
Top each with another slice of bread, buttered side up, to form the sandwiches.
Carefully place the sandwiches onto the preheated skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, pressing gently with a spatula to help the bread crisp up and the cheese melt.
Flip the sandwiches over and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and allow them to cool for 1-2 minutes before slicing in half and serving warm.
