Preparation

    Grill the Onions

    In a skillet over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil and let it heat. Add sliced onions and sauté until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Bread

    Slice the ciabatta rolls in half lengthwise. Brush the insides lightly with olive oil for added flavor.

Assemble the Sandwich

  1. 3

    Layer the Ingredients

    On the bottom half of each ciabatta roll, layer the Genoa salami, capicola, and mortadella slices evenly. Top with grilled onions, provolone cheese, a leaf of lettuce, and a slice of tomato.

  2. 4

    Add Dressing

    Drizzle the Italian dressing over the top of the tomato slice for an extra burst of flavor.

Grilling

  1. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    Close the sandwich with the top half of the ciabatta roll. Place the sandwich on a preheated grill or sandwich press. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the bread is crispy and the cheese is melted.
