Italian Submarine Sandwich Recipe

Italian-American · Main course · 15 min total

A classic Italian sub loaded with cured meats, provolone, and tangy dressing, perfect for a hearty lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

• 1 loaf (about 24 inches) Italian bread or 4 individual sub rolls
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 pound sliced Genoa salami
• 1/2 pound sliced capicola (ham)
• 1/2 pound sliced provolone cheese
• 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
• 1 medium tomato, sliced
• 1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup sliced pepperoncini peppers
• 1/4 cup sliced black olives

Instructions

1. Slice the bread horizontally, but not all the way through, to create a hinge. If using individual rolls, split them open.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper until smooth.
3. Spread the dressing evenly on both cut sides of the bread.
4. Layer the salami, capicola, and provolone on the bottom half of the bread, folding the meats and cheese to fit.
5. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, red onion, pepperoncini, and black olives.
6. Close the sandwich, press down gently, and slice into 4 portions if using a whole loaf. Serve immediately.

Tips

• For best flavor, let the assembled sandwich rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow flavors to meld.
• Wrap leftover sandwich tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
• Add hot peppers or banana peppers for extra heat.
