How to Make Italian Stromboli with Ham, Salami & Cheese

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet refrigerated pizza dough or puff pastry
  • 6 slices deli ham
  • 8 slices Genoa salami
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Layer Filling: Roll out the dough on a clean surface. Arrange the provolone, ham, salami, and mozzarella down the center of the dough, making sure to leave clean edges on both sides. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning and garlic powder over the filling.
  3. Fold & Seal: Cut 1-inch diagonal strips on each side of the filling. Start folding the strips over the filling in a braid pattern. Make sure to tuck the ends under to seal everything in.
  4. Brush & Bake: Brush the top of your Stromboli with egg wash for a nice shine. Sprinkle grated Parmesan over the top. Place it in the oven and bake for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
  5. Garnish & Serve: Allow the Stromboli to rest for 5 minutes after baking. Then, slice it into pieces and top with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color.
