WOULD YOU EAT THIS CLASSIC ITALIAN SUB SANDWICH 🥖🍅🥗
Ingredients:
1 large sub roll or hoagie bun
4 slices Genoa salami
4 slices ham (or prosciutto)
4 slices mortadella (or capicola)
4 slices provolone cheese
1/4 cup shredded lettuce
1/2 tomato, thinly sliced
1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced
4-6 pepperoncini peppers, sliced (optional for a spicy kick)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon mayonnaise (optional)
1 tablespoon Dijon or yellow mustard (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the roll: Slice the sub roll in half lengthwise. If desired, spread mayonnaise and mustard on the inside of the roll for extra flavor.
Layer the meats and cheese: Start by layering the Genoa salami, ham, and mortadella (or capicola) on the bottom half of the roll. Add the provolone cheese on top of the meats.
Add the veggies: Layer the shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion slices over the cheese. Add pepperoncini peppers for a tangy and slightly spicy kick if desired.
Drizzle with dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the veggies.
Assemble the sandwich: Close the sandwich with the top half of the roll, pressing gently to compact the layers.
Serve: Slice the sub in half and serve immediately. Enjoy with chips, pickles, or your favorite side.
Helpful Tips:
For added flavor, toast the roll lightly before assembling the sandwich.
Customize with additional toppings like roasted red peppers, black olives, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze.
Serve with a side of Italian pasta salad for a complete meal.
