Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pound (1 lb or 454 grams) ground beef
- 1 (13.8-ounce or 391 grams) can refrigerated pizza dough
- 1 (8-ounce or 227 grams) package shredded mozzarella cheese
Vegetables and Seasonings:
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 1 green bell pepper, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
Dressing:
- 1 (8-ounce or 227 milliliters) bottle Parmesan-peppercorn dressing
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and prepare a large skillet for meat preparation. Sauté beef, onions, bell peppers, and garlic over medium heat until meat turns brown and crumbly, then drain excess fat and return to skillet.
- Season the beef mixture with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, ensuring even distribution of flavors throughout the meat.
- On a greased rimmed baking sheet, carefully unroll the dough and stretch it into a rectangular shape, creating an even surface for filling.
- Sprinkle the first layer of cheese across the dough, creating a melty foundation for the stromboli.
- Distribute the seasoned beef mixture evenly over the cheese, maintaining a one-inch border around the edges to prevent overflow during rolling.
- Add a second layer of cheese over the beef mixture, then drizzle the dressing across the filling for additional moisture and flavor.
- Carefully roll the dough from the long side, tucking and pinching the ends to create a secure seal and prevent filling from escaping.
- Position the stromboli seam-side down on the baking sheet and make diagonal slits across the top to allow steam to escape during baking.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until the exterior turns a deep golden brown and appears crispy and well-cooked.
- Remove from oven and let the stromboli rest for 10 minutes to allow filling to set and cool slightly before slicing.
- Serve with remaining dressing on the side for dipping, enhancing the overall eating experience.
Notes
- Select high-quality, thinly sliced beef like ribeye or sirloin for authentic Philly cheesesteak flavor and tender texture.
- Use provolone or white American cheese for traditional cheesesteak taste, enhancing the overall richness and melting properties.
- Pat beef dry before cooking to ensure proper browning and prevent excess moisture during sautéing, creating a more concentrated flavor profile.
- Slice vegetables uniformly to promote even cooking and consistent texture throughout the stromboli.
