  • Bake:
    Place the assembled croissants on a baking sheet and bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the croissants are golden brown and the cheese has fully melted.
  • Serve:
    Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute before slicing. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately while warm and cheesy.

    • Why This Twist Works

    The croissant serves as the star of this dish, offering a lighter, more buttery alternative to the classic hoagie roll. The light, flaky texture pairs perfectly with the savory beef and gooey melted cheese, elevating the experience from a simple sandwich to something truly decadent.

    Additionally, the croissant adds a surprising sweetness that balances the rich flavors of the beef and onions, giving the dish a unique flavor profile that you won’t find in your typical Philly cheese steak.

    Tips and Variations

    • Grilled Vegetables: For a deeper flavor, you can grill the bell peppers and onions before adding them to the croissant for a smoky twist.
    • Cheese Choices: While provolone is the traditional cheese used in a Philly cheese steak, feel free to swap it out for mozzarella, cheddar, or even a spicy pepper jack if you like a bit of heat.
    • Add Spice: If you love a little kick, consider adding sliced jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce to the beef mixture before assembling the croissant.
    • Make It a Meal: Pair these Croissant Philly Cheese Steaks with a side of crispy fries, a fresh green salad, or some pickles to complete your meal.
