Ingredients

• 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, sliced
• 1 bell pepper, sliced
• 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Step 2: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the flank steak and cook for 2–3 minutes until browned.
3. Step 3: Add the sliced onions, bell pepper, and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté together for 5–7 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Season with salt and black pepper.
4. Step 4: Roll out the pizza dough on a flat surface and cut it into 2-inch-wide strips.
5. Step 5: Place a spoonful of the cooked steak and vegetable mixture and some shredded mozzarella cheese onto each strip. Roll the dough tightly around the filling and place the breadsticks seam-side down on a greased baking sheet.
6. Step 6: Brush each breadstick with melted butter, then sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and garlic powder.
7. Step 7: Bake the breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
8. Step 8: Serve warm, optionally with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips & Variations

• Use provolone or cheddar cheese instead of mozzarella for a different flavor.
• Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the filling for a spicy kick.
• Make sure to roll the dough tightly to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
• For a vegetarian version, substitute the steak with sautéed mushrooms and extra bell peppers.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

Meat and Vegetables

• 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, sliced
• 1 bell pepper, sliced
• 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Cheese and Dough

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

Toppings

• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for baking the breadsticks to a golden, crispy finish.
2. Cook Steak: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced flank steak and cook for 2–3 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
3. Sauté Vegetables: Add the sliced onions, bell pepper, and mushrooms to the skillet with the steak. Sauté together for 5–7 minutes until the vegetables are softened and cooked through. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
4. Prepare Dough: Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface and cut it into 2-inch wide strips, setting yourself up for easy stuffing and rolling.
5. Assemble Breadsticks: Place good spoonfuls of the steak and vegetable mixture onto each dough strip. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top, then carefully roll each strip tightly to seal the filling inside and place the rolls seam side down on a greased baking sheet.
6. Add Toppings: Brush each rolled breadstick with melted butter, then sprinkle evenly with grated Parmesan cheese and garlic powder to add flavor and promote browning.
7. Bake: Bake the prepared breadsticks in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until they turn golden brown and the cheese inside is melted and bubbly.
8. Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm, ideally accompanied by marinara sauce or your favorite dip for an extra burst of flavor.

Notes

• You can substitute flank steak with ribeye or sirloin for a different flavor and tenderness.
• Feel free to add hot sauce or sliced jalapeños into the filling for a spicy kick.
• Ensure the dough strips are rolled tightly to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat in the oven for crispiness.
• These breadsticks pair wonderfully with a side of marinara or ranch dressing.
