Ingredients
Scale
- 12 slider buns (Hawaiian or soft dinner rolls work best)
- 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 12 slices provolone cheese (or American cheese if preferred)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Ingredient Highlights
- Ribeye or Sirloin Steak: Thinly sliced steak is key to creating the tender texture that mimics a classic Philly cheesesteak. Ribeye is the most authentic, but sirloin is a more budget-friendly option.
- Provolone Cheese: Provolone melts beautifully and gives a mild, creamy flavor. However, you can use other cheeses like American or mozzarella depending on your preference.
- Slider Buns: Soft, slightly sweet buns work best for Philly cheesesteak sliders as they soak up the flavor while holding everything together.
Instructions
Prepare the Filling:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- Sauté the Onions and Peppers: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper, sautéing for 5-7 minutes until softened. Add minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, add the thinly sliced steak. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the steak is browned and cooked through. Season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce for added flavor.
- Assemble the Sliders: Place the bottom half of the slider buns in the prepared baking dish. Layer the cooked steak, sautéed onions and peppers, and provolone cheese slices on top. Place the top half of the buns on top.
Bake and Serve:
- Brush with Butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with a pinch of salt. Brush the tops of the slider buns with the butter mixture.
- Bake: Cover the sliders with aluminum foil and bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese has melted and the buns are lightly toasted. Remove the foil during the last 5 minutes of baking to allow the tops to brown.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
