Ingredients

1 (12") loaf of soft Italian bread sliced crosswise in half
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 slices provolone cheese
3 ounces Genoa salami slices
2 ounces pepperoni slices
1/2 tablespoon fresh herbs thyme, parsley, basil or combination
1/4 cup sliced Kalamata olives
1/2 medium green pepper cut into strips
1/3 cup marinara sauce
6 ounces fresh mozzarella

Instructions

Preheat the broiler to high (500°F). Place the sliced bread open-faced on a baking sheet.
Starting with the olive oil, drizzle or brush it over both slices of bread. Layer the provolone cheese and meat on the bottom slice. Sprinkle the herbs over both slices of bread.
Layer the olives, green peppers, marinara sauce, and mozzarella cheese on top of the meat.
Stick the sandwich under the broiler. Keep an eye on it and rotate the baking sheet, if necessary, to ensure the cheese melts evenly. Broil just until the bread is toasted and the mozzarella has melted.
Place the top sliced bread on top of the bottom one and, using a serrated knife, slice into four sandwiches. Serve hot.
