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.
- 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!
