Craving the delicious, savory flavors of a classic Philly cheesesteak, but looking for a bite-sized version? These Philly Cheesesteak Sliders are the perfect answer! Packed with tender, flavorful shaved steak, sautéed onions, green peppers, and melted provolone cheese, all sandwiched between soft sweet rolls, these sliders are the ultimate comfort food. Whether you’re hosting a party, having a family dinner, or simply indulging in a delicious snack, these sliders are sure to please everyone!
Unlike a traditional Philly cheesesteak sandwich, these sliders are baked in the oven, making them perfect for serving a crowd. Plus, they’re easy to prepare, and the combination of Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and dried thyme gives these sliders a mouthwatering depth of flavor. Let’s get started!
Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large green pepper, thinly sliced
- 1/2 pound of fresh shaved steak
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 – 12 pack of sweet bread buns
- 6 slices of provolone cheese
- 1 tablespoon of melted butter
- 1 teaspoon of dried thyme (not ground)
- 1/2 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce for brushing
Instructions:
1. Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the sliders bake evenly and become golden and crispy on top.
2. In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and green pepper to the pan. Stir occasionally, allowing the vegetables to cook until they have softened and are slightly caramelized—about 5 to 7 minutes. This adds a sweet, savory depth of flavor to the filling.
3. Add the fresh shaved steak to the pan with the onions and peppers. Stir in the 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Break the steak apart with two forks to prevent it from clumping together. Continue to cook until the steak is browned and no longer pink, which should take around 5-6 minutes. Once cooked through, remove the pan from the heat and set it aside.
4. While the steak mixture is cooking, slice the sweet rolls horizontally in half, while keeping the buns intact as a 12-pack. Place the bottom halves of the buns onto a baking sheet.
5. Evenly spread the cooked steak mixture over the bottom half of the buns. Layer the slices of provolone cheese on top of the steak mixture. Make sure the cheese covers the entire surface for that perfect melt. Place the top half of the buns on top, pressing down lightly.
6. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, dried thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce. Mix well and then use a pastry brush to generously brush the butter mixture over the top of the buns. This step adds a delicious golden, savory finish to the sliders.
7. Place the sliders in the preheated oven and bake for 17-20 minutes, or until the top of the buns are golden brown, and the cheese is fully melted and bubbly. You’ll know they’re done when the sliders look crisp on top and the cheese has melted into the steak mixture, creating a mouthwatering pull when you cut into them.
8. Once baked, remove the sliders from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Cut into individual sliders and serve immediately. Enjoy these delicious, cheesy sliders with a side of chips, pickles, or a fresh salad!
Tips for the Perfect Philly Cheesesteak Sliders:
- Customize the Cheese: If you’re not a fan of provolone, try substituting it with cheddar, Swiss, or even American cheese for a gooey melt.
- Add Some Spice: For those who like a little kick, try adding sliced jalapeños or hot sauce to the steak mixture. It’s a great way to bring an extra layer of flavor and heat.
- Make Ahead: You can prepare these sliders ahead of time by assembling the sliders and refrigerating them (without baking). When ready to serve, simply brush with butter and bake as directed.
- Serving Suggestions: These sliders are perfect on their own, but you can also pair them with crispy French fries, coleslaw, or even a zesty tomato salad for a full meal.
