Stromboli
Description
This Stromboli recipe starts with stretching a pizza dough into a thin rectangle seasoned with olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, and Parmesan cheese to create a flavorful base. Slices of ham, mozzarella, pepperoni, provolone, and salami are layered over the dough, sprinkled with oregano, then rolled into a sealed log shape. After brushing the exterior with an egg wash, the Stromboli is baked at 400°F until the crust is golden.
When baked, the Stromboli reveals a mixture of warm, melted cheeses with layered cured meats, all encased in a tender yet crisp dough. The combination delivers a variety of textures from soft cheese to chewy dough and slightly crisped edges. The herbs and seasonings contribute aromatic depth and mild heat.
Serve the Stromboli sliced with marinara or pizza sauce for dipping. Leftovers keep well refrigerated up to 3 days and can be reheated in an oven or air fryer. It freezes well when wrapped tightly after baking and cooled.
Ingredients
- 1 lb pizza dough
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes crushed
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese divided, freshly grated
- 1/3 lb ham or prosciutto, sliced
- 12 lices mozzarella cheese 8 oz package, fresh
- 1/3 lb pepperoni large deli slices
- 12 lices provolone cheese , (8 oz package)
- 1/3 lb salami large deli slices
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- egg 1 egg white mixed with 1 Tbsp water, wash
- marinara sauce for dipping, or pizza sauce
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F, with a pizza stone or baking sheet inside.
- Roll out pizza dough into a large thin rectangle (about 18’’x12’’)
- Season dough: Spread with a thin layer of olive oil over the top and sprinkle generously with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, and ¼ cup fresh grated parmesan cheese.
- Layer deli meats and cheeses: Leaving a 1’’ border around the edge of the dough, layer ham slices, slightly overlapping (like roof shingles) across the top. Repeat with Mozzarella slices, then pepperoni, provolone, and salami. Sprinkle oregano over the top.
- Roll up: Fold the long edge of the dough closest to you over the fillings a few inches. Roll/fold the dough away from you to form a log. When you near the end edge of the dough, stop, and pull that dough up and over, towards you. Pinch together to the ends and fold them under, to seal the roll.
- Bake: Place Stromboli, seam side down, on a piece of parchment paper. Brush outside of dough with egg wash. Make 3-4 slits on top, for steam to escape. Sprinkle remaining parmesan on top. Bake for 25 minutes on pizza stone or parchment on prepared baking sheet. Remove from oven and use a paper towel to blot excess grease away, if needed.
- Rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
- Serve warm or at room temperature, with marinara or pizza sauce on the side, for dipping.
Notes
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in oven, air fryer, or microwave as preferred.
- Freeze baked Stromboli, wrapped well, for up to 3 months; thaw completely before reheating.
- Substitute or add Italian cold cuts like capicola or soppressata to vary flavors.
- For a vegetarian option, omit meats and add spinach, mushrooms, and olives with cheeses.
