Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 pound of pizza dough, (homemade or store-bought)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, (melted)
  • 1 garlic clove, (minced)
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 12 large slices pepperoni
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 12 slices salami
  • I teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Egg wash: 1 large egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, (for sprinkling)
  • Garnish: finely chopped Italian parsley
  • Pizza sauce or marinara sauce, (for serving)

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Place a piece of parchment paper on a clean surface. Place the dough on the parchment paper and roll into a rectangle, about 10-by-15-inches.
  • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and garlic. Use a pastry brush to spread the garlic butter evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border.
  • Layer the provolone cheese, pepperoni, shredded mozzarella, and pepperoni, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
  • Starting with the long edge of the dough, roll up tightly into a log, pinching in the sides as you roll, like making cinnamon rolls. Pinch the edges to seal and fold where the seam is. Lay the stromboli seam side down.
  • Carefully lift the parchment paper with the Stromboli onto a large baking sheet. Brush the top with egg wash and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Use a sharp knife to cut 4 slits in the top.
  • Bake for 25 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes. Transfer to a large cutting board. Garnish with fresh parsley, if using. Cut into thick slices and serve with pizza sauce or marinara sauce.
