Ingredients

Flour for dusting
1 1-pound ball pizza dough, cut in half
½ cup jarred hot pepper or “hoagie spread”
6 ounces Cabot Extra Sharp Cheddar shredded (about 1½ cups)
2 ounces spicy capicola, sliced thin
2 ounces pepperoni, sliced thin
1 teaspoon olive oil
½ teaspoon garlic salt
1 cup marinara sauce, warmed

Directions

PREHEAT oven to 350°F.
DUST work surface with flour.
ROLL pizza dough into two flat rectangles, each roughly the size of a sheet of paper.
SPREAD hot pepper spread over the dough, leaving about an inch along each side. Top with shredded cheddar, capicola and pepperoni, dividing evenly and leaving a border around edge of dough.
ROLL up Stromboli, starting with narrow end, making a roll about 8-inches wide by 3 inches thick. Repeat with the remaining dough.
BRUSH oil over the rolls and sprinkle with garlic salt. Slash three small steam vents in the top of the Stromboli.
COAT sheet pan or cookie sheet generously with cooking spray. Set Strombolis on the pan and bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes or until top is golden brown and melted cheese is visible. (If using air fryer, fry each Stromboli in air fryer basket at 350°F for 11 to 12 minutes.)
REMOVE Strombolis from the oven and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve with the marinara sauce.
