In the oven

1. If the sandwich was frozen, let it defrost in the refrigerator for at least 3-4 hours.
2. Wrap the sandwich in a good quality aluminum foil from all sides.
3. Place the foil wrapped sandwich on a baking tray and slide the tray into the middle rack of the preheated oven.
4. Let the sandwich stay in the oven for about 15-20 minutes at 325℉.

4. Heat the sandwich for 3 minutes at high powder.
5. Check the sandwich for doneness after each minute.
