Ingredients Notes

The magic of these Philly Cheese Steak Sliders lies in their simple, high-quality ingredients. Here’s what you’ll need:

Slider Rolls: Soft and fluffy rolls, like Hawaiian rolls or dinner rolls, are perfect for this recipe. Their slightly sweet flavor balances the savory filling beautifully.
Beef: Thinly sliced beef, such as ribeye or sirloin, works best. You can also use pre-sliced steak meat from your local grocery store for convenience.
Cheese: Provolone is the traditional choice for Philly cheesesteaks, but you can also use mozzarella or American cheese for a creamier option.
Bell Peppers and Onions: These veggies are essential for that classic Philly flavor. Use a mix of green and red peppers for a pop of color.
Butter and Seasoning: A buttery glaze seasoned with garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and dried parsley gives the sliders a rich, savory finish.

No special equipment is needed—just a skillet for cooking the beef and veggies, and a baking dish to assemble and bake the sliders.

How To Make These Philly Cheese Steak Sliders

These sliders come together in just a few easy steps. Let me guide you through the process:

Prepare the Beef and Veggies: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of oil and sauté sliced onions and bell peppers until softened and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, cook the thinly sliced beef until browned and cooked through. Season with salt, pepper, and a splash of Worcestershire sauce for added flavor. Mix the cooked beef with the sautéed veggies.
Assemble the Sliders: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Slice the slider rolls in half horizontally, keeping the tops and bottoms intact. Place the bottom half of the rolls in a greased baking dish. Spread the beef and veggie mixture evenly over the rolls, then layer with slices of provolone cheese.
Top and Glaze: Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese. Melt butter in a small bowl and stir in garlic powder, Worcestershire sauce, and dried parsley. Brush this mixture generously over the tops of the rolls.
Bake: Cover the sliders with foil and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve: Let the sliders cool for a few minutes before slicing them apart. Serve warm and enjoy the melty, savory goodness!

Storage Options

Got leftovers? These sliders store beautifully and reheat like a dream.

Refrigeration: Store any leftover sliders in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Freezing: Wrap each slider individually in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag. They’ll keep well in the freezer for up to 2 months.
Reheating: To reheat, place the sliders in a 350°F oven for 10-15 minutes until warmed through. If frozen, let them thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.

Variations and Substitutions

One of the best things about these Philly Cheese Steak Sliders is how adaptable they are. Here are some fun ways to make them your own:

Swap the Meat: Not a fan of beef? Use thinly sliced chicken or turkey instead.
Change the Cheese: Try cheddar, pepper jack, or even Swiss for a different flavor profile.
Add Heat: Love a little spice? Add jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce to the filling.
Go Veggie: For a vegetarian version, skip the meat and load up on extra sautéed veggies like mushrooms and zucchini.
Upgrade the Glaze: Mix in a teaspoon of Dijon mustard or honey for a flavorful twist on the butter glaze.
