Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 6 oz thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak
- 1 medium sliced onion
- 1 medium sliced bell pepper (optional)
- 1 tbsp olive oil or butter (for sautéing)
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Breadstick Base
- 1 package store-bought breadstick dough (or homemade dough rolled into 12x8 inch rectangle)
- 4 oz provolone or American cheese, thinly sliced
- 1–2 tbsp melted butter or olive oil (for brushing)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers and sauté until soft and slightly caramelized. Add the thinly sliced steak, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, then cook until the steak is browned but still tender. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Roll Out the Dough: Lightly flour your surface and roll out the breadstick dough into a 12 by 8 inch rectangle. If using homemade dough, prepare and roll to this size accordingly.
- Assemble the Breadsticks: Evenly spread the cooked steak and vegetable mixture over the rolled dough. Layer thin slices of provolone or American cheese on top. Carefully roll the dough tightly into a log, sealing the edges well to prevent filling leakage during baking.
- Slice and Bake: Cut the rolled log into even pieces about 1 to 1.5 inches thick. Place the pieces cut-side up on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with melted butter or olive oil to encourage a golden, crispy crust. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.
- Serve and Enjoy: Let the breadsticks cool for a few minutes after baking to help the cheese set slightly. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces such as marinara, ranch, or spicy mayo.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced steak to ensure quick cooking and tenderness.
- Don’t overfill the breadsticks to avoid leaking during baking.
- Roll the dough tightly to keep the filling securely inside.
- Brushing with butter or oil promotes a golden, crispy crust.
- Allow breadsticks to rest briefly after baking for easier handling and less cheese oozing.
