Ingredients
- 1 pizza dough
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1 ½ cups mozzarella cheese, shredded (divided)
- 12 thin slices ham
- 4 ounces Pepper Jack cheese, sliced
- 15-17 salami slices
- 15 slices pepperoni
- 1/4 cup parsley, chopped fine (divided)
- 1 egg, beaten
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese
- Cracked black pepper, to taste
- More chopped parsley, to garnish
- Marinara sauce, for dipping
Instructions
Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Dough:
- Lightly flour a work surface or use a piece of parchment paper. Roll the pizza dough into a rectangle about 12 by 14 inches. If using parchment paper, you can transfer it directly to the oven.
Assemble the Stromboli:
- Brush the top of the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with minced garlic.
- Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese over the dough, leaving a 1-2 inch border along one long edge and both short ends.
- Layer the ham slices, then the Pepper Jack cheese, followed by the salami slices.
- Add another 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella, followed by the pepperoni slices.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella and 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley over the top.
Roll the Stromboli:
- In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash.
- Brush the exposed edges of the dough (one long edge and both short ends) with the egg wash.
- Carefully roll up the stromboli from the long edge without the egg wash, rolling tightly.
- Seal the seam with wet fingertips and place the stromboli seam-side down on a baking sheet or pizza stone.
- Seal the ends with wet fingers, folding any extra dough underneath.
Bake the Stromboli:
- Brush the stromboli with the remaining melted butter or extra egg wash.
- Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and cracked black pepper.
- Use a sharp serrated knife to make shallow diagonal slits on top of the stromboli.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 25-30 minutes until the top is golden brown. Check the bottom to ensure it is browned as well.
Serve:
- Let the stromboli sit for a few minutes to cool slightly.
- Use a sharp serrated knife to slice into 8-10 pieces.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with warm marinara sauce for dipping.
