Looking for a solid Sicilian sideline

Looking for a solid open Sicilian sideline,for white. Any ideas.

The Yugoslav Attack is one of my favorites.

Tons of options, here.

Easiest answer is probably to develop a repertoire around 2.c3 or 3.c3...or possibly the Closed with 2.Nc3 and 3.g3.  Those lines are considered pretty solid.

The 3.Bb5 lines are also considered very solid, though you'd need an independent option against 2...e6.

I play a repertoire designed to get me into a preponderance of Maroczy positions as white, though it's a little difficult to describe in a couple lines.  I could try if you're super-interested.

Alternatively, head into open Sicilian waters, and focus on solid lines.  Classical stuff with Be2 and 0-0 in the style of Karpov would be one way, though obviously you'd need to evaluate on an opening-by-opening basis whether this was a valid strategy in any particular game.

A repertoire based around the English attack and Yugoslav is certainly ambitious, but I'm not sure I'd call it "solid."  "Sharp" and "double-edged" would maybe be more appropriate.

Actually, I like the Fischer-Sozin rather than the English; but you are correct.

I also wouldn't call it a sideline.

Nigel Davies's "Taming the Sicilian" had a repertoire based on open lines with g3.  Don't know much about it, or about them.

I have my own variations in it; it's more of a set-up for a lot of different ideas.

"open Sicilian" implies that it's a 2.Nf3 3.d4 line you're looking for. Typically that means you won't be able to employ one line anymore, since it all depends on what Black's 2nd, 4th and 5th moves are.

E.g. 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 g6 (the Dragon) and 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 e5 (Sveshnikov) have completely different variations.

I generally play the Closed Sicilian, with a setup like:

It's ideal for a kingside attack, and is actually quite solid and less risky than other variations one would find in the open. I have had satisfactory results with it in tournaments and casual play.

thanks for the ideas
