The muffuletta, a popular deli sandwich that originated among Italian immigrants in New Orleans, consists of a variety of Italian deli meats, sharp provolone, olives and pickled vegetables such as giardiniera and roasted red peppers. We give this classic sandwich a playful spin by chopping up the ingredients and piling them into a toasted hoagie roll. The result is utterly delicious and gives you a taste of every ingredient in each bite.

Ingredients

4 hoagie rolls, split

Olive oil, for brushing and serving

4 ounces sliced provolone

3 ounces sliced capicola

3 ounces sliced mortadella or other Italian deli ham

3 ounces sliced salami

3 ounces sliced soppressata

1/2 cup giardiniera, drained well

1/2 cup mixed pitted olives

1/2 cup roasted red peppers

1 teaspoon dried oregano, plus more for serving

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Red wine vinegar, for serving

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to broil. Brush the inside of each hoagie roll with olive oil. Broil until golden brown and toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn the oven to 450 degrees F.
  2. Put the provolone, capicola, mortadella, salami, soppressata, giardiniera, olives, red peppers, dried oregano, garlic powder, a good pinch of salt and several grinds of pepper on a cutting board. Use a chef’s knife to chop the mixture until everything is in roughly 1/2-inch pieces.
  3. Divide the mixture among the toasted hoagie rolls (they should feel loaded). Bake until the cheese has melted and the sandwiches are warmed through, about 8 minutes.
  4. Drizzle each sandwich with a little red wine vinegar and more olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano before serving.
