Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

1 loaf ciabatta bread, split in half horizontally
6 slices provolone cheese
6 slices mozzarella cheese
18 slices thinly sliced ham
8 slices thinly sliced salami
8 thin slices coppa ham
2 slices prosciutto
10 slices pepperoni
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon sliced pepperoncini peppers
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ head lettuce, shredded
¼ red onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sliced black olives
½ tomato
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Place ciabatta cut side-up on a baking sheet and layer one piece of the bread with slices of provolone and the other with mozzarella.
Bake on the top rack of the preheated oven until the cheese melts, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and increase the temperature to broil.
Layer both sides of the sandwich with folded slices of ham, then alternate between the two sides with a layer of salami, coppa ham, prosciutto, and pepperoni. Broil in the oven until the meats crisp up, 2 to 3 minutes.
Stir mayonnaise, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, oregano, red pepper flakes, pepperoncini peppers, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add the lettuce, red onion, and black olives, and toss to combine.
Thinly slice the tomato and salt on each side.
On one side of the sandwich, layer the tomato slices. Pile a large portion of the lettuce salad on top, then top with grated Parmesan cheese. Carefully fold the two bread slices together to form the sandwich. Cut into 4 triangular portions and serve immediately.
