Italian Meatball Subs

Italian Meatball Subs

By Shona Bonewit

Total: 30 minutes
ItalianMain CourseSandwich

Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Sub rolls
  • 16 pieces Meatballs
  • 2 cups Marinara sauce
  • 2 cups Mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder

Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

In a skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.

3

Add the meatballs to the skillet and season them with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for 7-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and heated through.

4

Meanwhile, warm the marinara sauce in a separate pan over low heat. Once warmed, add the cooked meatballs to the marinara sauce, ensuring they are well-coated.

5

Slice the sub rolls horizontally, being careful not to slice all the way through, so they stay connected on one side.

6

Place the sub rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

7

Fill each sub roll with 4 meatballs and a generous amount of marinara sauce.

8

Top the meatballs with 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese per sub.

9

Bake the subs in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

10

Remove the subs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
