## Step-by-Step Instructions to Make Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Cheesy Breadsticks
Here’s how to make **Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Cheesy Breadsticks** step by step:
### **Step 1: Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Dough**
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). While the oven is heating up, lightly flour a clean surface and roll out your breadstick dough into a rectangle shape. The dough should be about ¼-inch thick, but not too thin, as you’ll want it to hold the filling without tearing.
If you’re using store-bought dough, follow the package instructions for preparation, and roll it out on a floured surface.
### **Step 2: Sauté the Steak, Peppers, and Onions**
In a large skillet, heat about 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced steak and cook for about 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned and cooked through. Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil and toss in the sliced bell peppers and onions. Sauté them for about 4-5 minutes, or until they soften and start to caramelize. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add the cooked steak back into the pan and stir to combine. Set aside and let the mixture cool for a few minutes.
### **Step 3: Assemble the Breadsticks**
Once the steak and veggie mixture is slightly cooled, it’s time to assemble the stuffed breadsticks. Spread the dough out flat and evenly distribute the Philly cheesesteak filling across the center of the dough.
Sprinkle a generous amount of shredded provolone cheese over the filling, and if you want, you can also add some shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese for an extra cheesy pull. Once the filling and cheese are in place, fold the dough over to enclose the filling, creating a long log shape. Press the edges of the dough together to seal the breadsticks.
### **Step 4: Slice and Arrange**
Using a sharp knife, slice the dough log into 8-10 individual breadsticks. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If you want the breadsticks to look extra golden and flavorful, brush the tops with melted butter and sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
### **Step 5: Bake**
Place the breadsticks in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and the cheese inside has melted. The outside of the breadsticks should be crisp, and the inside should be gooey and filled with all of that cheesy, savory goodness.
### **Step 6: Serve and Enjoy**
Once your Philly cheesesteak stuffed cheesy breadsticks are out of the oven, allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauces, such as marinara sauce, ranch, or more teriyaki sauce for a twist.

## Tips for Making the Best Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Cheesy Breadsticks
– **Use Thinly Sliced Steak**: For the best texture, make sure the beef is sliced thinly against the grain. You can ask your butcher to slice it for you or use a sharp knife at home. The thinner the beef, the more tender it will be.
– **Season the Steak Well**: Season the steak generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. The seasoning is crucial to making the beef flavorful and ensuring the breadsticks are delicious.
– **Customize the Filling**: While the traditional Philly cheesesteak ingredients are delicious, feel free to add your own twist. Mushrooms, jalapeños, or even a bit of barbecue sauce can add extra flavor to your breadsticks.
– **Use Freshly Grated Cheese**: For the best melt and flavor, freshly grate your cheese instead of using pre-shredded cheese. Pre-shredded cheese often contains anti-caking agents that can affect its meltability.
– **Serve with Dipping Sauces**: Serve the breadsticks with a variety of dipping sauces to enhance the experience. Marinara, ranch, or a cheesy dip will take these breadsticks to the next level.
