Marino’s Fried Onion and Green Pepper Sandwich

11 Sep

This sandwich is named after my dad! He loved to make Fried Onion and Green Pepper Sandwiches! When he made this sandwich the whole house would smell so good with the aroma of fried garlic and onions!   I have always enjoyed eating this sandwich which brings back fond memories of my mom and dad cooking in the kitchen.  The sandwich has a  hint of garlic and a little bit of heat with the sweet taste of green  peppers smothered in olive oil. It  goes well with a glass of red wine and can be served for lunch or dinner.

Green, Red and Hot Peppers From Susan T’s Garden

  • 1 Green or red pepper
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 1 clove of garlic chopped
  • 1 small hot pepper whole
  • Olive oil
  • Italian Rolls

In a large fry pan cover the bottom with olive oil and bring the heat to medium.  Add  the whole hot pepper, the sliced onion, and the chopped garlic to the pan and fry until slightly brown.  Add more olive oil as needed.  Add the sliced green pepper and sauté a few minutes. Lower the heat and place the rolls on top of the onions and peppers to soften.   Remove the pan from heat and serve! If you are really into heat add the hot pepper to your sandwich or discard.  Goes great with a glass of red wine!  Buon Appetito!

    Good morning Susan,   Oh yes I remember when Mom would made our Dad these sandwiches , the aroma was just wonderful.   Do you have the recipe for fried dough, I remember Mom making them and then sprinkle sugar on them, also how about Tuna Spaghetti     Have a fabulous day Teresa Taraschi Santarelli

      I sure do! All you have to do is make your pizza dough and pan fry! I have to post this on my blog! That was our treat for sure, I liked butter on the fried dough!!! Marino and Danny liked it with sugar.
