Description
This cheesesteak-stuffed garlic loaf combines all the flavors of a classic Philly cheesesteak with buttery garlic bread. It’s loaded with tender steak, sautéed peppers and onions, and melty cheese, all baked into a crusty loaf that’s perfect for sharing.
Ingredients
- 1 crusty French bread or Italian loaf
- 400g thinly sliced steak (ribeye or sirloin)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 6–8 slices provolone cheese (or mozzarella/cheddar blend)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Slice the loaf lengthwise without cutting all the way through to create a pocket.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil and cook steak slices until browned. Set aside.
- In the same skillet, sauté onions, peppers, and garlic until soft and fragrant.
- Return steak to the skillet, add Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Stuff the mixture into the loaf, layering with provolone cheese slices.
- Melt butter with garlic and brush over the outside of the loaf.
- Wrap the loaf in foil and bake for 15–20 minutes.
- Unwrap and bake another 5 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Slice into thick pieces, garnish with parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
- Add mushrooms for extra umami flavor.
- Use pepper jack or mozzarella for a different cheese twist.
- Wrap leftovers tightly in foil to keep the bread from drying out.
- Avoid microwaving to maintain bread’s crispness.
- Make ahead and refrigerate until ready to bake.
