Cheesesteak Breadsticks Made Easy
A cheesy, savory twist on two comfort food favorites 💥
🧀 Ingredients List
For the Dough (Homemade or Store-Bought)
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet (2 ¼ tsp) active dry yeast
- ¾ cup warm water
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
(Or use store-bought pizza or breadstick dough)
For the Philly Cheesesteak Filling
- 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 8 oz provolone cheese, shredded
- Salt & pepper to taste
Optional Add-Ins
- Sautéed mushrooms
- Garlic powder or minced garlic
- Red pepper flakes
- Fresh parsley or basil
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Make the Dough (if homemade)
- In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
- Add flour, salt, and olive oil. Stir to form dough.
- Knead on a floured surface for 5–7 minutes until smooth.
- Let rise in a greased bowl, covered, for about 1 hour or until doubled.
2. Cook the Cheesesteak Filling
- In a large skillet, sauté onions and bell peppers in oil until soft.
- Add the sliced steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned.
- Mix in shredded cheese and stir until melty and combined. 😋
3. Assemble the Breadsticks
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll dough into a large rectangle. Cut into strips about 4 inches wide.
- Spoon the cheesesteak mixture onto one half of each strip.
- Fold over, seal edges well, and place seam-side down on a baking sheet.
4. Bake to Golden Perfection
- Brush tops with melted butter (optional: sprinkle garlic powder or parsley).
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Cool slightly and serve with dipping sauces like marinara or ranch. 🧄🔥
💡 Pro Tips
- Don’t overfill or the dough may tear — 2 tbsp of filling per breadstick is plenty!
- Make it spicy with jalapeños or buffalo sauce inside the filling.
- Freeze ahead: Assemble and freeze unbaked. Bake straight from frozen with a few extra minutes.
