  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 6 sandwiches

Ingredients

  • 6 hoagie rolls or sub sandwich buns
  • 12 slices Genoa salami
  • 12 slices smoked turkey breast
  • 12 slices beef salami or beef pepperoni
  • 12 slices provolone cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup sliced banana peppers, drained
  • 1/2 cup roasted red peppers, sliced
  • 1/4 cup sliced black olives
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Slice each hoagie roll lengthwise, leaving one side attached if possible.
  3. Place the bottom halves of the rolls on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Layer each sandwich with 2 slices Genoa salami, 2 slices smoked turkey breast, and 2 slices beef salami or beef pepperoni.
  5. Add 2 slices provolone cheese and sprinkle shredded mozzarella over each sandwich.
  6. Distribute banana peppers, roasted red peppers, and sliced black olives evenly over the sandwiches.
  7. Place the top halves of the rolls over the filling.
  8. In a small bowl mix melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
  9. Brush the butter mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
  10. Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese on top.
  11. Bake for 12–15 minutes until the bread is golden and the cheese is melted.
  12. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Use sturdy hoagie or sub rolls so the sandwiches hold the fillings well.
  • Add lettuce or tomatoes after baking for extra freshness.
  • For a spicy kick, include jalapeños or crushed red pepper flakes.
  • Swiss, cheddar, or mozzarella slices can replace provolone.
  • Reheat in the oven or air fryer to keep the bread crispy.
