Delicious classic italian sub recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • Italian Hoagie Roll: 1 (12-inch)
  • Genoa Salami: 4 ounces, thinly sliced
  • Capicola: 4 ounces, thinly sliced
  • Provolone Cheese: 4 ounces, thinly sliced
  • Lettuce: 1/2 cup, shredded iceberg
  • Tomato: 1/2, sliced
  • Red Onion: 1/4, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Slice the hoagie roll horizontally, being careful not to cut all the way through. Open the roll like a book.
  2. Step 2: Layer the provolone cheese slices along the bottom half of the roll.
  3. Step 3: On top of the cheese, layer the salami and capicola.
  4. Step 4: Add the shredded lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion slices.
  5. Step 5: Drizzle the Italian dressing over the vegetables and meats.
  6. Step 6: Close the hoagie roll and slice in half (optional). Serve immediately.

Notes

  • To prevent a soggy sub, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before serving.
  • Reheating isn't recommended, but you can lightly toast the bread halves separately if you prefer a warm sub.
  • For a more authentic flavor, serve with a side of giardiniera or pepperoncini.
  • Don't overload the sub with dressing – a light drizzle lets the flavors of the meats and cheeses shine.
