Ingredients

• 500 grams Thinly sliced roast beef
• 500 milliliters Beef broth
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 6 slices Provolone cheese slices
• 6 rolls Soft hoagie rolls
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 150 grams Giardiniera (Italian pickled vegetables)
• 50 grams Banana peppers (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, combine the beef broth, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.

Step 2

Once the broth is simmering, add the thinly sliced roast beef and heat for 3-5 minutes until the beef is warmed through. Reduce the heat to low to keep the beef warm.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 4

Slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise and lightly spread the interior of each roll with butter.

Step 5

Place the buttered rolls on a baking sheet and toast in the preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until slightly crispy.

Step 6

Remove the toasted rolls from the oven and layer each roll bottom with a generous portion of the warm roast beef, allowing some of the broth to soak into the bread for added flavor.

Step 7

Top the beef with a slice of provolone cheese and return the sandwiches to the oven for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.

Step 8

Once the cheese is melted, remove the sandwiches from the oven. Add a scoop of giardiniera and a few banana peppers if desired for an extra tangy flavor.

Step 9

Close the sandwiches with the roll tops and serve immediately with a small dish of the remaining broth for dipping.
