Step 1
Heat olive oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high. Add meatballs and cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until browned and crispy on the outside, 4-5 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in marinara and garlic powder. Simmer for 2 minutes until sauce coats the meatballs.
Step 3
Split rolls open and fill each with 4 meatballs and sauce, dividing evenly.
Step 4
Sprinkle mozzarella over the meatballs on each roll, dividing the cheese evenly between them.
Step 5
Return the filled rolls to the skillet over medium heat. Cover and cook until cheese melts, 1-2 minutes.
Step 6
Transfer to a plate and serve hot.
