Ingredients
Scale
Meat:
- 1/2 pound (0.23 kilogram) thinly sliced steak (ribeye or sirloin)
Vegetables:
- 1/2 cup green bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 cup onion, diced
- 1/2 cup mushrooms, diced (optional)
Seasonings and Cheese:
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Sizzle thin steak slices in olive oil over medium-high heat until perfectly browned, then transfer to a separate plate.
- Use the same skillet to caramelize bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms until tender, seasoning with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Reintroduce the steak to the vegetable mixture, combining thoroughly, then allow the filling to cool slightly.
- Warm the oven to 375F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or light grease.
- Stretch pizza dough into a rectangular shape on a flour-dusted surface.
- Divide the dough into 6-8 uniform strips for individual breadsticks.
- Distribute the steak and vegetable filling across one half of each dough strip, generously covering with shredded cheese.
- Fold the remaining dough half over the filling, crimping edges tightly to create sealed pockets.
- Arrange the stuffed breadsticks on the prepared baking sheet.
- Whisk melted butter with garlic powder and Italian seasoning, then lavishly brush over breadstick surfaces.
- Dust the tops with grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes until the breadsticks transform into golden, puffy delights.
- Allow a brief cooling period, then serve with marinara, ranch, or cheese sauce for dipping.
Notes
- Choose high-quality, thinly sliced beef like ribeye or sirloin for the most tender and flavorful filling.
- Pat the steak dry before cooking to ensure proper browning and prevent excess moisture.
- For a lighter version, swap regular pizza dough with whole wheat or gluten-free alternatives.
- Replace steak with portobello mushrooms or plant-based meat substitutes for similar texture and taste.
