Pour marinara sauce onto the meat patties. Add 1 teaspoon chopped flat leaf parsley. Flip the patties to get them coated with sauce. Turn off the stove.
Place ciabatta (or focaccia) on a baking tray. Spread remaining butter onto each piece of bread. Place a meat patty on the top. Spoon remaining sauce in pan onto each of the patties.
Then top each patty with a slice of mozzarella to totally cover the bread. You may need to use more than one slice of mozzarella.
