Prep
-
Pizza dough - Take dough out 30 minutes before baking and cover in some flour. Resting dough will make it easier to work with.
-
Garlic (for marinara and broccoli) / Shallots - Prep as directed. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
-
Make marinara - (If prepping right before cooking, get oven heating before making marinara.) Heat cooking oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic (the portion for the marinara) and shallots to heated oil. Saute for ~2 minutes and then add crushed tomatoes with brown sugar, salt and black pepper. Reduce heat and simmer for ~4 minutes to let the flavors come together. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)
-
Parmesan cheese (if using) / Broccoli / Parsley- Prep as directed and store separately. (Can be done up to 4 days ahead)
-
Eggs - Whisk eggs.

Make
-
Heat oven to 425F / 218C degrees.
-
Line a sheet pan with parchment paper (check to be sure the brand you are using is approved at high cooking temps).
-
Dust a counter with flour. Roll out pizza dough into an oval shape. Spread the first half of the marinara sauce in a thin layer (adding too much sauce will prevent the center of the stromboli from cooking all the way through) on the dough, leaving about a 1” (2.5cm) edge on all sides. Top with salami and then mozzarella. (Or watch video for assembly steps)
-
Brush edges with whisked eggs. Starting with the edge closest to you, roll the dough into a log. Transfer stromboli to the sheet pan and cut slits in the top about 2” (5cm) apart. Brush with whisked eggs and sprinkle with parmesan cheese and parsley.
-
Bake for 24 to 26 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through (if your dough was thick, it may need a few more minutes to bake).
-
While stromboli cooks, place garlic and broccoli into a microwave-safe container. Cover with a damp paper towel and microwave for 3 to 4 minutes, until tender. Squeeze lemon juice over top and season with some salt and pepper.
-
If marinara was made ahead, reheat second half of the marinara briefly in the microwave.
-
When stromboli is done cooking, cut into slices. Serve with marinara for dipping and broccoli on the side. Enjoy!
