HAM AND PEPPERONI STROMBOLI

Provided by Robert Irvine : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 5 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup all-purpose flour, for dusting
1 pound prepared pizza dough
2 egg whites, whipped
1 1/2 cups mozzarella
1 pound tavern ham, sliced thin
8 ounces capicola ham, sliced thin
8 ounces pepperoni, sliced thin
1 cup marinara or tomato sauce
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
10 to 12 fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle a clean dry work surface with flour. Roll the dough into a 10- by 14-inch rectangle, making sure not to flip the dough over, rotating by 90 degrees as needed. After rolling the dough, apply the egg whites to cover inner section (10- by 3-inch). Then add 1/4 cup mozzarella followed by both hams, another 1/4 cup cheese and then finish with the pepperoni. To finish stuffing, add the remaining cheese and drizzle with the sauce and herbs.
  • Next, brush the edges with some of the egg whites. Fold the bottom and top edges over the filling, and then fold the sides over twice, 1 inch at a time, resulting in a 6- by 14-inch tube. Brush the outside of the stromboli with the remaining egg whites, place on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper and bake until firm and golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Cut into 5 to 6 portions and serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best results. Fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced ham, and a flavorful tomato sauce will make all the difference.
  • Make sure the dough is thin and evenly rolled out. This will help ensure that the stromboli cooks evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the stromboli with fillings. Too much filling will make it difficult to roll up and seal the dough.
  • Bake the stromboli at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help create a crispy crust and prevent the filling from drying out.
  • Let the stromboli cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help prevent the filling from spilling out.

Conclusion:

Mozzarella ham stromboli is a delicious and easy-to-make Italian dish that is perfect for a party or a potluck. With its crispy crust, flavorful filling, and melted cheese, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
