Description
A golden crescent ring stuffed with savory steak, caramelized peppers and onions, and melty provolone cheese — this Philly Cheese Steak Crescent Ring is the ultimate party pleaser or weeknight comfort dish.
Ingredients
- Refrigerated crescent roll dough: 2 tubes (8 oz each) – The flaky, buttery base that forms the ring.
- Thinly sliced beef steak: ¾ pound – Ribeye or sirloin works best, quick-cooked for juicy bites.
- Green bell pepper (sliced): 1 – Adds crunch and color with a mild sweetness.
- Yellow onion (sliced): 1 medium – Caramelizes beautifully to balance the richness.
- Provolone cheese (slices): 8–10 slices – The creamy, melty star that ties it all together.
- Olive oil: 1 tablespoon – For sautéing the veggies and steak.
- Garlic powder: 1 teaspoon – Adds a mellow, savory layer.
- Salt and pepper: To taste – Enhances all the natural flavors.
- Egg (for wash): 1, beaten – Gives the crescent ring that golden, bakery-style finish.
- Parsley (optional garnish): 1 tablespoon, chopped – Adds a touch of freshness and color.
Instructions
- Preheat Your Equipment: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine Ingredients: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and peppers, sauté for 5–7 minutes until soft and golden. Add sliced steak, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes until warmed through. Remove from heat.
- Prepare Your Cooking Vessel: Unroll the crescent dough triangles and arrange them in a circle on the parchment-lined sheet, points facing outward and overlapping slightly to form a ring.
- Assemble the Dish: Layer half the provolone slices on the dough base. Spoon the steak mixture evenly over the cheese, then top with remaining provolone. Fold the dough points over the filling, tucking underneath to seal.
- Cook to Perfection: Brush the ring with beaten egg. Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and the dough is fully cooked through.
- Finishing Touches: Let the ring rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve and Enjoy: Slice and serve warm with dipping sauces like horseradish mayo, ranch, or spicy mustard.
Notes
- Use pre-cooked or deli steak for quick assembly.
- Let dough sit at room temperature for easier handling.
- Cool the filling slightly before assembling to avoid soggy dough.
- Serve with a side of au jus or your favorite dip.
- Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in the oven for best results.
