Build a super quick and easy classic Italian hoagie, baked until the cheese melts, focusing on the perfect bread-to-meat ratio for a satisfying deli-style lunch at home.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 4 oz thinly sliced capocollo
  • 4 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
  • 4 oz thinly sliced Genoa salami
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup shredded iceberg lettuce

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise, keeping one side attached like a hinge.
  3. Layer the cold cut sandwich ingredients: place two slices of provolone cheese on the bottom half of each roll.
  4. Distribute the capocollo, prosciutto, and Genoa salami evenly over the cheese on all four rolls.
  5. Place the top half of the roll over the meat.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, and black pepper to create the dressing.
  7. Brush the tops of the assembled hoagies lightly with half of the dressing mixture.
  8. Place the hoagies on a baking sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the bread is lightly toasted.
  9. Remove from the oven. Open the baked hoagies and top the melted cheese and meat with shredded iceberg lettuce.
  10. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the lettuce and meat. Serve immediately for a deli style sandwich experience.

Notes

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, sturdy hoagie roll ingredients that can hold up to the fillings and baking process.
  • You can add thinly sliced tomato or onion before baking if you prefer a more loaded sandwich.
  • If you do not want to bake, this makes an excellent classic Italian sub served cold.
