Description
A bold and satisfying chopped Italian sandwich loaded with salami, ham, turkey, provolone, crisp lettuce, juicy tomatoes, red onion, and tangy pepperoncini, all tossed in a simple olive oil and red wine vinegar dressing and stuffed into toasted sub rolls.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large Italian sub rolls, about 8 inches each
- 150 grams thinly sliced salami
- 150 grams thinly sliced ham
- 150 grams thinly sliced turkey
- 8 slices provolone cheese, about 200 grams total
- 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
- 2 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup chopped pepperoncini
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C and lightly toast the Italian sub rolls for about 5 minutes until slightly crisp on the outside.
- On a large cutting board, pile the salami, ham, turkey, provolone, lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, and pepperoncini. Chop everything together until evenly mixed.
- Transfer the chopped mixture to a large bowl and toss with olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Open the toasted rolls gently without tearing them.
- Spoon the chopped mixture evenly into each roll, pressing lightly so the filling holds together.
- Optionally warm the assembled sandwiches in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes for slightly melted cheese.
- Slice each sandwich in half diagonally and serve immediately.
Notes
- Do not overdress the filling to prevent soggy bread.
- Chop ingredients finely for even flavor in every bite.
- Store leftover filling separately from bread in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
