Philly Cheesesteak Dip
Philly Cheesesteak Dip combines caramelized onions, sautéed green peppers, garlic, deli roast beef, cream cheese, sour cream, and provolone cheese baked together until bubbly. This dip offers a creamy texture complemented by the savory flavor of roast beef and melted cheese. It serves well as a party appetizer or snack when paired with baguette slices, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetables.
Ingredients
Dip
- 1 large yellow onion thinly sliced
- 4 Tablespoons butter salted
- 1 1/2 Tablespoons light brown sugar
- 1 large green bell pepper chopped
- 3 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 pound roast beef roughly chopped, deli
- 16 ounces provolone cheese chopped and divided, sliced
For Serving
- baguette sliced
- tortilla chips
- pretzels
- carrot sticks, or other vegetables for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese with an hand mixer until smooth. Add sour cream. Set aside.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add brown sugar and onions. Saute 10-15 minutes until lightly caramelized.
- Add green pepper and garlic. Cook for a few minutes more until peppers are tender, stirring occasionally.
- Transfer the sauteed peppers and onions to the bowl of cream cheese and sour cream. Add the chopped roast beef, salt and all but 1/2 cup of the provolone cheese, reserving part of the cheese for sprinkling on top at the end. Stir until everything is well-combined.
- Transfer the mixture to a pie plate, baking dish, or just use the oven-safe skillet used for sauteeing the vegetables. Sprinkle the remaining provolone cheese on top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until hot and bubbly, and the provolone cheese starts to slightly brown on top. Serve immediately with sliced baguette, tortilla chips, pretzels, or veggies.
Notes
- The onions should be cooked slowly until lightly caramelized to develop their sweetness without burning.
- This dip is best served hot and fresh from the oven to keep the cheese melted.
- Use freshly sliced provolone cheese for better melting and flavor.
- Pair with a variety of dippers such as baguette slices, tortilla chips, pretzels, or fresh vegetable sticks for different textures and tastes.
