# What You'll Need:

→ Beef

01 - 1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced (or sirloin)

→ Vegetables

02 - 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
03 - 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
04 - 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
05 - 2 cloves garlic, minced

→ Dairy

06 - 12 slices provolone cheese

→ Breads

07 - 12 slider rolls (soft dinner rolls or Hawaiian rolls)

→ Condiments & Seasonings

08 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
09 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
10 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
11 - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
12 - 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
13 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

→ Topping

14 - 2 tablespoons melted butter
15 - 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (or parsley)

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
02 - In a large skillet over medium-high heat, combine olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the thinly sliced onions and bell peppers, cooking for 4-5 minutes until they begin to soften. Introduce the minced garlic and continue cooking for an additional 30 seconds. Transfer the sautéed vegetables to a separate bowl.
03 - Using the same skillet, add the thinly sliced steak. Season generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes, just until it is lightly browned. Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet and toss to thoroughly combine with the steak mixture. Remove the skillet from heat.
04 - Carefully slice the slider rolls horizontally, ensuring they remain connected. Arrange the bottom halves of the rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Layer half of the provolone slices evenly over the bottom rolls. Distribute the steak and vegetable mixture uniformly across the cheese. Top with the remaining provolone slices, then cover with the top halves of the slider rolls.
05 - In a small bowl, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Brush the tops of the assembled slider rolls with the melted butter and sprinkle generously with dried Italian herbs.
06 - Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is thoroughly melted and the tops of the rolls are golden brown.
07 - Allow the sliders to cool for 2 minutes before slicing them apart and serving warm.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • You'll be amazed at how quickly these come together, making you look like a kitchen wizard without all the fuss.
  • The combination of tender beef, sweet peppers, and gooey cheese on a soft roll is pure comfort food bliss that everyone will adore.
02 -
  • Never overcrowd your pan when cooking the steak; it steams instead of searing, missing that crucial browning that adds so much flavor.
  • Using high-quality provolone makes a noticeable difference in the final taste and melt, so don't skimp on the cheese.
03 -
  • To get perfectly thin slices of ribeye, partially freeze the steak for about 20-30 minutes before slicing; it makes it much easier to cut against the grain.
  • Use a serrated knife for slicing the slider rolls horizontally to get a clean, even cut without tearing the soft bread.
