Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein Ingredients:
- 10 slices Genoa salami
- 8 slices deli ham
- 12 slices sandwich pepperoni
Cheese Ingredients:
- 8 slices provolone or mozzarella cheese
- 3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) parmesan cheese
Base and Flavor Ingredients:
- 1 tube Pillsbury pizza crust
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) unsalted butter
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) chopped parsley
Instructions
- Heat oven according to pizza crust package instructions, typically around 425°F.
- Create garlic infusion by melting butter and combining with finely chopped garlic, fresh parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese.
- Place parchment paper on baking sheet and carefully stretch pizza dough, extending it to nearly cover the entire surface.
- Distribute cured meats evenly across dough: layer ham, salami, and pepperoni, ensuring consistent coverage while maintaining a small perimeter around edges.
- Carefully roll dough lengthwise into a compact cylinder, pressing seams firmly to seal and pinching ends to prevent ingredient spillage.
- Use sharp serrated knife to create diagonal slits across stromboli’s surface, then liberally coat exterior with prepared garlic butter mixture.
- Transfer stromboli to preheated oven and bake until exterior turns golden brown and cheese begins bubbling, approximately 15-20 minutes.
- Allow stromboli to rest for 5 minutes after removing from oven, then slice diagonally and serve alongside warm marinara sauce for dipping.
Notes
- Customize meats by swapping out ham, salami, or pepperoni with turkey, chicken, or vegetarian protein alternatives to suit different dietary preferences.
- Prevent soggy bottoms by using a preheated pizza stone or placing the baking sheet on the lowest oven rack for crispier crust results.
- Create a gluten-free version by selecting gluten-free pizza dough and checking ingredient labels for potential cross-contamination.
- Enhance flavor complexity by adding fresh herbs like basil or oregano between meat and cheese layers for an extra aromatic touch.
