Ingredients

Scale

For the Dough

  • 1 lb store-bought pizza dough (or homemade dough)
  • Flour for dusting

For the Filling

  • 1 lb ribeye or sirloin steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For Assembly

  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp water
  • Marinara sauce (for dipping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the pizza dough into a large rectangle about 12×16 inches, ensuring an even thickness for consistent cooking.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onions, green bell pepper, and minced garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and fragrant, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and increase heat to medium-high. Add the thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak. Season with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and optional red pepper flakes. Cook until browned and just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Assemble the Stromboli: Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Spread the sautéed vegetables evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Layer the cooked steak over the vegetables, then sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan evenly on top.
  5. Roll and Seal: Carefully roll the dough from one long side to the other, forming a tight log. Pinch and seal the edges to prevent filling from leaking. Place the stromboli seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  6. Apply Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create the egg wash. Brush this mixture evenly over the stromboli’s surface for a beautiful golden crust.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve: Let the stromboli cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with marinara sauce on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • You can substitute ribeye with sirloin or even flank steak if preferred.
  • For a spicier stromboli, increase the red pepper flakes or add sliced jalapeños to the filling.
  • If you want to make it ahead, assemble the stromboli and refrigerate it up to a day before baking.
  • Ensure the dough is sealed properly to prevent any cheese leak during baking.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in an oven for best texture.
