Philly Cheese Steak Dip (from Food Wishes)


Ingredients

1 pound top sirloin steak, cut into inch thick slices (any beef should 
work)
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
1 tablespoon butter
1 1/2 to 2 cups diced peppers (use a mix of sweet, hot, and/or pickled 
peppers)
1 pound cream cheese, softened
8 ounces shredded provolone cheese
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
touch of cayenne

- sliced baguette to serve alongside


Instructions

1. Slice steak into thick pieces. Season generously on both sides with 
salt and pepper.

2. Heat olive oil in a pan over high heat until smoking. Add steak 
slices and sear until bottoms are browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip over and reduce 
heat to medium. Cook until juices appear on the tops, 3 to 4 minutes more. 
Transfer to a bowl to cool.

3.  Add diced onion, a big pinch of salt, and butter to the meat juices in 
the pan. Cook and stir over medium heat, scraping up the browned bits, 
until onions start to soften, 5 to 7 minutes.

4. Dice up the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, pepperoncini, pickled 
red peppers, and jalapenos until you have 1 1/2 to 2 cups. Add to the 
onions; cook and stir until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.

5. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

6. Chop steak into small pieces. Place back into the bowl with the 
accumulated meat juices. Add the onion-pepper mixture and cream cheese. 
Grate in the provolone cheese, saving a little for the top. Drizzle in 
Worcestershire sauce and sprinkle in cayenne pepper. Mix dip thoroughly.

7. Transfer 1/2 of the dip into a small baking dish. Smooth the top with 
a fork. Place baking dish on top of a sheet pan. Sprinkle the remaining 
provolone cheese on top. Save the other 1/2 to bake fresh for your guests.

8. Bake in the preheated oven until dip is bubbling and heated through, 
20 to 25 minutes. Broil until top is browned, about 1 minute more. Repeat 
with the second batch of dip.
