Must-Try Pizza Italian Stromboli: A Delicious Fusion

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven (5 minutes):

   • Turn on your oven and preheat it to the temperature specified on the Pillsbury pizza crust package. This ensures consistent cooking and a perfectly golden Stromboli.

2. Prepare the Dough (5 minutes):

   • Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out the pizza dough gently. Be careful not to tear the dough while stretching it to achieve your desired size.

3. Layer the Flavor (5 minutes):

   • Unleash your creativity with the fillings! Spread a layer of ham on the rolled-out dough, followed by salami and pepperoni. Top it generously with shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese. Remember, more cheese translates to a gooier and more delicious center.

4. Roll, Seal, and Score (5 minutes):

   • Carefully roll the dough with the fillings inside, forming a log shape. Pinch the edges securely to seal the Stromboli and prevent any melty cheese from escaping.
   • Use a sharp knife to make shallow scores along the top of the Stromboli. This allows steam to release during baking and prevents the Stromboli from bursting.

5. Brush with Garlicky Goodness (5 minutes):

   • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with minced garlic, chopped parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese. This flavorful mixture creates a golden brown crust and adds an extra layer of savory taste. Brush this magic potion generously over the Stromboli.

6. Bake to Golden Perfection (15-20 minutes):

   • Place the Stromboli on a baking sheet and bake it in the preheated oven according to the pizza dough package instructions. This typically takes around 15-20 minutes, or until the Stromboli is golden brown and crispy.

7. Serve and Enjoy (optional):

   • Let the Stromboli cool slightly before slicing it into portions. Serve it warm with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, if desired. Enjoy this delicious fusion of pizza and savory pastry!
