Hot Italian Turkey Sub image

I didn't want to cook, but I didn't want a sandwich either. So, this is what I came up with. It's very easy and it tastes soooo good! I hope you enjoy.

Provided by Bamabelle1202

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 8 halves, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 loaves of subway style bread
6 ounces deli turkey, sliced
6 ounces mozzarella cheese, deli sliced
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 fresh garlic clove
3 teaspoons dried basil

Steps:

  • Dice garlic clove (or just buy the garlic in a jar that's ready to use) then mix the garlic, basil and olive oil in a small bowl, set aside.
  • Cut each of the loaves of bread in quarters (cut the loaf from front to back and from top to bottom, in the middle).
  • Coat the inside of the bread with the olive oil mixture then layer on the cheese and turkey.
  • Close up the sandwiches and wrap well in aluminum foil.
  • Place in the oven at 300 degrees until the cheese melts.
  • I like to go really heavy with the olive oil/garlic/basil mixture and with the turkey, but beware going heavy on the cheese -- mozarella smells really strong when there's a lot around!

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread: A good turkey sub starts with a sturdy bread that can hold up to all the fillings. Look for a bread that is slightly crusty on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside.
  • Use high-quality turkey: The turkey is the star of the show, so make sure you use a good-quality meat. Look for turkey that is fresh or deli-sliced, and avoid pre-cooked or processed turkey.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese: Cheese is another essential ingredient in a turkey sub. Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor. Cheddar, Swiss, and provolone are all popular choices.
  • Add some veggies: Veggies add crunch, freshness, and nutrients to your sub. Some good options include lettuce, tomatoes, onions, peppers, and cucumbers.
  • Choose your condiments wisely: Condiments can make or break a turkey sub. Choose condiments that you enjoy and that complement the other ingredients. Popular choices include mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, and ranch dressing.

Conclusion:

The turkey sub is a classic sandwich that is perfect for any occasion. With its simple ingredients and endless variations, it's a sandwich that everyone can enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give the turkey sub a try.
