Cheese Steak Dip
Ingredients
  • 1 pound beef top sirloin steaks
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 red bell pepper
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup pepperoncini peppers
  • 7 pickled red peppers (such as Peppadew®)
  • 3 jalapeno peppers
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 pound provolone cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
Instructions
1
Cut the steak into substantial portions. Sprinkle a liberal amount of salt and pepper on both sides of the steak pieces.
2
Heat a generous quantity of olive oil in a pan over extremely high heat until it starts to smoke. Add the steak slices and sear until their bottoms are a deep brown color, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the steak over and reduce the heat to a medium level. Cook until the juices start to appear on the surface, another 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer the steak to a bowl to let it cool down.
3
Add diced onion, a small amount of salt, and butter to the remaining meat juices in the pan. Cook and stir over a medium heat, scraping up any browned bits that have accumulated, until the onions start to soften and become translucent, around 5 to 7 minutes.
4
Dice up a variety of colorful peppers - red bell pepper, green bell pepper, pepperoncini, pickled red peppers, and jalapenos - until you have a total of 1 1/2 to 2 cups. Add the onions; cook and stir until they start to soften, about 5 minutes.
5
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
6
Cut the steak into small, bite-sized pieces. Place them back into the bowl with the accumulated meat juices. Add the onion-pepper mixture and a generous amount of cream cheese. Grate in some provolone cheese, saving a little for the top layer. Drizzle in a small amount of Worcestershire sauce and sprinkle in some cayenne pepper. Mix the dip thoroughly.
7
Transfer half of the dip into a small baking dish. Smooth the top with a fork to create an even surface. Place the baking dish on top of a sheet pan. Sprinkle the remaining provolone cheese on top. Save the other half to bake fresh for your guests.
8
Bake in the preheated oven until the dip is bubbling and heated through, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Broil until the top is browned, about 1 minute more. Repeat with the second batch of dip.
