Stromboli

Name: Stromboli
Cuisine: European, Italian, Mediterranean
Ingredients: Here's how to make this incredibly delicious Italian Stromboli:; **Ingredients:**; • 1 tube (8 oz) Pillsbury pizza crust; • * 8 slices deli ham; • * 10 slices Genoa salami; • * 12 slices sandwich pepperoni; • * 8 slices provolone cheese or mozzarella (or 1 cup shredded mozzarella); • * 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted; • * 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley; • * 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese; **Instructions:**; 1. **Preheat & Prep:** Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.; 2. 2. **Roll it Out:** Unroll the pizza crust onto the prepared baking sheet. Gently stretch it out a bit to form a rectangle, if needed.; 3. 3. **Layer the Goodness:** Layer the meats and cheese evenly over the pizza crust, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges. Start with the provolone/mozzarella, then layer the ham, salami, and pepperoni. Don't overload it, but make sure every bite gets some love!; 4. 4. **Roll it Up:** Starting from one of the longer sides, carefully but firmly roll up the dough, creating a tight log. Pinch the seam shut to seal the stromboli. Tuck in the ends and pinch those seams shut as well to prevent filling from oozing out.; 5. 5. **Butter & Season:** In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, chopped fresh parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well. Generously brush this mixture all over the top and sides of your stromboli. This creates that beautiful golden crust and adds incredible flavor!; 6. 6. **Slash & Bake:** Make several diagonal slits (about 1 inch deep) across the top of the stromboli. This allows steam to escape and helps the stromboli cook evenly.; 7. 7. **Bake to Perfection:** Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until the stromboli is golden brown, puffed up, and the cheese is melted and bubbly.; 8. 8. **Rest & Serve:** Let the stromboli rest on the baking sheet for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps the cheese set and prevents the filling from spilling out. Slice into thick pieces and serve warm with your favorite marinara sauce for dipping.; Enjoy your incredible homemade Stromboli! You'll be amazed at how simple and satisfying it is. ❤️
