Description

This Philly Cheesesteak Garlic Bread is a mouthwatering mash-up of two classics—cheesy garlic bread and savory Philly cheesesteak. Loaded with tender beef, sautéed peppers and onions, and plenty of melted provolone cheese, it’s a quick and hearty appetizer, lunch, or dinner option that’s perfect for game day or an easy weeknight meal.


Ingredients

  • 1 large French bread loaf, halved lengthwise

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced (or use shaved beef)

  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced

  • 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded provolone cheese (or sliced provolone)

  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.

  2. In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.

  3. Brush the cut sides of the French bread with the garlic butter. Place on the baking sheet.

  4. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions and peppers, cook for about 5 minutes until softened.

  5. Add the steak to the pan. Season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until just browned, about 3–4 minutes.

  6. Spoon the steak mixture evenly over each garlic bread half.

  7. Sprinkle or layer provolone cheese generously over the top.

  8. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  9. Optional: Broil for 1–2 minutes for a golden top.

  10. Remove from oven, sprinkle with parsley if using, slice, and serve warm.


Notes

  • You can use hoagie rolls or smaller bread loaves for individual servings.

  • Add mushrooms or swap provolone for mozzarella or American cheese based on your preference.

  • For extra flavor, toast the bread with the garlic butter before adding toppings.
