Ingredients
- 1/2 cup pickled banana peppers, plus 1 tbsp brine
- 1/4 cup pimiento-stuff olives
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 16-inch loaf soft Italian bread
- 1 small plum tomato, thinly sliced
- 4 oz. deli-sliced Genoa salami
- 4 oz. deli-sliced ham
- 2 oz. deli-sliced coppa
- 4 oz. deli-sliced provolone
- Kosher salt and black pepper
- 2 romaine lettuce hearts, chopped
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 425. Pulse the banana peppers, olives, 1/4 tsp oregano and 1 tbsp olive oil in a food processor until finely chopped.
-
Split open the loaf of bread, leaving one side attached. Brush the inside with 2 tbsp olive oil. Fill with a layer of tomato, then salami, ham, coppa, and provolone. Top with the banana pepper mixture. Wrap the sandwich tightly in foil and press between 2 baking sheets; plate a cast-iron skillet on top to weigh it down. Bake until the bread is crisp and the cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, whisk the banana pepper brine, remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, remaining 1/4 tsp oregano and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Toss with the romaine. To serve, unwrap the sandwich and cut into pieces. Serve with the salad.
