This big and tasty sandwich, inspired by a New York deli, is a favorite at our football parties or any gathering. Kids and adults both say it's super.
Ingredients:
2 loaves unsliced italian bread (1 lb. each)
1/4 cup olive oil or 1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons italian seasoning, divided
1/2 lb deli roast beef
3/4 lb sliced mozzarella cheese
16 fresh basil leaves
3 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced
1/4 lb thinly sliced salami
1 (6 1/2 ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and sliced
1 (10 ounce) package ready-to-serve salad greens
1/2 lb roasted deli chicken
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
1. Cut loaves in half horizontally and hollow out tops and bottoms, leaving 1/2 of bread in shells. Discard removed bread.
2. Combine oil and garlic; brush inside bread shells.
3. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning.
4. Layer bottom of each loaf with a fourth of the roast beef, mozzarella, basil, tomatoes, salami, artichokes, salad greens, chicken and onion. Repeat layers.
5. Season with salt, pepper and remaining 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning and drizzle with remaining oil mixture if desired.
6. Replace bread tops; wrap tightly in plastic wrap.
7. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing. Enjoy!
