Ingredients
Scale
- 4 fresh hoagie rolls or sub buns
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 cup mild Italian dressing (ensure it's alcohol-free or homemade)
- 6 oz thinly sliced smoked turkey breast
- 6 oz thinly sliced beef beef beef salami
- 4 oz thinly sliced turkey turkey turkey pepperoni
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup sliced pickled banana peppers
- 1 cup shredded romaine lettuce (for serving)
- 1 large tomato, thinly sliced (for serving)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Slice each hoagie roll lengthwise, but not all the way through, creating a hinge.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Brush the inside of each hoagie roll generously with this seasoned oil mixture. This adds a fantastic aromatic base and helps toast the bread.
- Layer the smoked turkey, beef beef beef salami, and turkey turkey turkey pepperoni evenly inside each roll. Aim for a generous amount that fills the sub without overflowing too much. Top the meats with the sliced provolone cheese, ensuring the cheese covers most of the meat.
- Distribute the thinly sliced red onion and banana peppers over the cheese. Drizzle a tablespoon or two of the Italian dressing over the fillings of each sub. This will infuse moisture and flavor as it bakes.
- Place the assembled subs on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and melted, and the rolls are golden brown and slightly crispy. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-browning.
- Once baked, carefully remove the subs from the oven. Open them up slightly and add the fresh shredded romaine lettuce and sliced tomato. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, savory goodness!
Notes
For an extra kick, add a dash of red pepper flakes with the garlic powder and oregano. You can also customize the fillings with other favorite deli meats like roast beef or chicken, as long as they are thinly sliced. These subs are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, but leftovers can be wrapped tightly and reheated gently in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes until warm.
