MEAT LOVERS STROMBOLI

Meat Lovers Stromboli image

I created this recipe for my sweet husband. His favorite thing to order from a local pizzeria is their family sized stromboli. This is our version. This recipe makes two large strombolis and could feasibly serve four people, or one hungry husband for two days. You could make the pizza dough, but I buy it pre-made for convencience sake.

Steps:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Cover the rectangle with layers of the toppings - pepperoni, sausage, cheese blend, parmesan cheese, italian herb seasoning to taste, pizza seasoning to taste, garlic powder to taste, red pepper flakes to taste. Be sure to leave a 1 inch border around all the sides.
Starting at the end closest to you, roll the stromboli into a log (my husband says the pizza place does it like a jelly roll).
Seal the dough by pinching firmly with fingertips on sides and ends.
Cover baking sheet with foil, brushed lightly with olive oil.

Use a pastry brush to apply olive oil to top of strombolis.

This Stromboli was a big hit with my family. They loved the combo of meats and sauciness. Add whatever veggies you like. Mushrooms would be great in this as well. It's sloppy, but so good. Enjoy!

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 15

Ingredients

1 can(s) refrigerated pizza crust dough
oil for browning meat and veggies
3 links or 1/2 pound bulk italian sausage
1/2 medium red or green pepper - diced
1/2 medium onion, chopped
salt & pepper to taste
couple shakes oregano or italian seasoning
2/3 - 1/2 c pizza sauce or i used pepperoni flavored spaghetti sauce ( 1/2 cup, we like ours saucy )
6 slice deli - salami - mine was thick, thinner would be better
15 - 20 slice pepperoni
1 1/2 - 2 c fresh shredded mozzarella cheese
couple shakes - dried parsley
olive oil for brushing the top
1/8 c parmesan
few pinch dried basil

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degree F. In a medium skillet, add about a tablespoon oil and over medium heat, crumble sausage and add the salt and pepper. Brown together until sausage is no longer pink and vegetables are tender. Drain. Add the oregano.
2. Now, stir in the sauce and simmer for a minute or two. Cool while preparing crust.
3. Spray a large sheet pan, with nonstick cooking spray. Spread out the pizza dough. ( try not to tear dough like I did)...lol Down the center of the dough ( lengthwise), place the salami in two rows. On top of that spread out the pepperoni.
4. Now, spread the meat sauce evenly over the salami and pepperoni. Add the cheese and sprinkle with parsley.
5. If need be, stretch dough over the top so it overlaps. Fold in and pinch the ends, flip over so seam is on the bottom.
6. Brush top with olive oil and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and basil. Place in oven and bake for 20 - 25 minuted or until golden brown.
7. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before cutting. Serve with sauce or without. Enjoy! It's quite tasty.

Tips:

To make the dough from scratch, you will need all-purpose flour, olive oil, warm water, sugar, salt, and active dry yeast.
Allow the dough to rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size.
For the filling, you can use any type of meat or combination of meats that you like. Some popular options include pepperoni, sausage, ham, and bacon.
You can also add other ingredients to the filling, such as cheese, vegetables, or herbs.
To make the stromboli, roll out the dough into a large rectangle. Spread the filling evenly over the dough, then roll it up jelly-roll style.
Pinch the ends of the stromboli to seal it, then place it on a greased baking sheet.
Bake the stromboli in a preheated oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Let the stromboli cool slightly before slicing and serving.
