Philly Cheese Stromboli – A Delicious Twist on a Classic Sandwich

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced steak to the skillet and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the steak is browned and cooked through.
Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced bell pepper and onion. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat.
Prepare the Stromboli Filling:

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese, mayonnaise, and Dijon mustard (if using) until smooth. This will create a creamy base for the filling.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the pizza dough, leaving about a 1-inch border around the edges.
Assemble the Stromboli:

On top of the cream cheese layer, add the cooked steak, sautéed peppers and onions, and shredded provolone cheese. Spread the filling evenly over the dough.
Carefully roll the dough up around the filling, pinching the edges to seal it. Tuck the ends of the dough under to seal them as well, creating a neat, closed roll.
Bake the Stromboli:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the stromboli seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. If desired, brush the top with a little olive oil or melted butter for a glossy finish.
Serve:

Once the stromboli is baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into pieces. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve with a side of marinara sauce for dipping.
