Philly Cheesesteak Dip
Description
This dip starts by sautéing diced green bell peppers and onions with garlic until softened, then cooking thinly sliced rib eye steak until browned. The cream cheese is beaten smooth with sour cream before folding in the cooked vegetables, meat, and half of the shredded provolone. The mixture is spread into a greased baking dish, topped with the remaining cheese, and baked until bubbly and melted.
The dip combines tender, savory beef with mild sweetness from the peppers and onions, set in a creamy cheese mixture for a thick, scoopable texture. The baking process melds the flavors and creates a lightly browned cheesy topping.
Serve warm with bread, crackers, or vegetable sticks for dipping. Preparing the cream cheese softened ensures smooth mixing, and cutting the ingredients finely helps the dip stay cohesive and easier to scoop.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter divided use
- 3/4 cup green bell pepper finely diced
- 3/4 cup onion finely diced
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 lb rib eye steak thinly sliced, boneless
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 1/2 cups provolone cheese shredded or chopped, divided use
- 1 tablespoon parsley chopped
- cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a square or rectangular baking dish (3 cup size or larger) with cooking spray.
- Melt a tablespoon of butter in a large pan over medium high heat. Add the pepper and onion and cook for 3 minutes or until softened.
- Add the garlic and cook for 30 more seconds. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
- Wipe out the pan with a paper towel. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the pan.
- Season the steak with salt and pepper and add it to the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until steak is browned and mostly cooked through.
- Coarsely chop the steak.
- Beat the cream cheese with a mixer until smooth. Add the sour cream and beat again for 1 minute.
- Add the vegetables and steak to the cream cheese mixture and fold to combine. Stir in half of the cheese.
- Spread the dip into the prepared pan and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes or until dip is bubbly and cheese is melted. Broil the top for 1-2 minutes to brown the cheese.
- Sprinkle with parsley and serve with baguette chips (crostini).
Notes
- Cut steak and vegetables finely for easier scooping and even mixing.
- Any oven-safe baking dish can be used depending on your portion needs.
- Soften cream cheese thoroughly beforehand for a smooth consistency in the dip.
