Key Ingredients & Substitutions
Ribeye Steak: Ribeye is juicy and flavorful, perfect for cheesesteaks. If you prefer a leaner cut, you can use sirloin or flank steak. Just slice it thinly for the best texture.
Onion: A small onion adds sweetness. You can substitute with shallots for a milder taste or use green onions for a different flavor. If you’re not a fan, feel free to skip it!
Mushrooms: Sliced mushrooms bring a nice earthy flavor. If mushrooms aren’t your thing, diced bell peppers or zucchini can work well as a substitute.
Crescent Roll Dough: This dough makes it easy to create the roll-ups, but you can also use pizza dough or phyllo pastry if you want a different texture. Just keep an eye on baking time as they may vary.
Cheese: Mozzarella and cheddar are great together! If you want a stronger flavor, try provolone or use American cheese for a classic touch.
How Do You Get the Steak Just Right?
Cooking steak correctly is key to a tasty roll-up. Here’s a simple way to do it:
- Start with a hot skillet to quickly sear the meat. This helps seal in juices.
- Thin slices cook fast. Don’t overcrowd the skillet; cook in batches if needed.
- Season right before cooking for the best flavor.
- Stir in sauces like Worcestershire quickly to coat the meat without overcooking it.
Remember, you want the steak just browned, not tough or chewy! Keep an eye on it—it only needs a couple of minutes.
Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups
Ingredients You’ll Need:
For the Filling:
- 1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper, to taste
For the Cheese:
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
For the Dough:
- 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 oz)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
For Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
How Much Time Will You Need?
You’ll need about 30 minutes in total—a quick 10 minutes for prep and around 15-18 minutes for baking. Once you factor in cooling time, it’s the perfect speed for a tasty snack or meal!
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Preheat and Prepare:
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). While that’s warming up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This makes for easy cleanup later!
2. Sauté the Vegetables:
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Toss in the thinly sliced onions and mushrooms. Sauté them for about 5 minutes until they are tender and lightly browned. Once done, remove them from the skillet and set aside.
3. Cook the Steak:
In the same skillet, add the ribeye steak sliced thin. Sprinkle the garlic powder, salt, and pepper over it. Cook the steak quickly for about 2-3 minutes until just browned. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and remove it from heat.
4. Roll Out the Dough:
On a clean surface, roll out the crescent dough. Press the seams together until it forms a neat rectangle. This is where your delicious filling will go!
5. Assemble the Filling:
Spread the cooked steak mixture evenly over the dough, followed by the sautéed onions and mushrooms. Top it all with the shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese. Yum!
6. Roll It Up:
Starting from one long side, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. This will help keep all the cheesy goodness inside!
7. Bake:
Place the roll seam side down on your prepared baking sheet. Slide it into the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes or until it’s golden brown and the cheese is nicely melted.
8. Cool and Serve:
Once done, remove the roll from the oven. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing into 1-inch pieces. This helps to keep the filling from spilling out when you cut it.
9. Garnish & Enjoy:
Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for a burst of color and flavor. Serve your Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups warm, and enjoy every cheesy bite!
These cheesy, beefy roll-ups are a fun way to enjoy classic flavors! Perfect for gatherings, snacks, or quick meals. Happy cooking!
Can I Use Different Types of Meat?
Absolutely! If you don’t have ribeye, you can easily substitute it with sirloin, flank steak, or even chicken for a different twist. Just remember to slice the meat thinly for the best texture.
How Can I Reheat Leftovers?
To reheat leftovers, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the roll-ups on a baking sheet. Cover them loosely with foil and heat for about 10-15 minutes until warmed through. You can also use the microwave, but the oven helps keep them crispy!
Can I Make These Roll Ups Ahead of Time?
Yes, you can prep these roll-ups ahead! Assemble them and store them unbaked in the fridge for up to a day. Just pop them in the oven when you’re ready to bake for a fresh, hot snack!
What Can I Serve with Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups?
These roll-ups pair wonderfully with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, or you could serve them with a simple salad or some potato wedges for a more filling meal.
