Ingredients
1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
½ lb thinly sliced beef steak
½ green bell pepper (sliced)
½ small onion (sliced)
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp olive oil
½ cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
1 egg (for egg wash)
1 tbsp water
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Steak Filling
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, cooking until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the thinly sliced beef steak, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 4–5 minutes until the beef is browned and fully cooked. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
2. Prepare the Puff Pastry
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut it into 6 equal rectangles.
3. Assemble the Pastry Rolls
Spoon a portion of the steak and vegetable mixture onto each pastry rectangle. Sprinkle shredded cheese over the filling. Roll each pastry rectangle into a log, sealing the edges by pinching them together.
4. Egg Wash and Bake
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Brush the tops of the pastry rolls with the egg wash for a golden, glossy finish. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and flaky.
5. Serve and Enjoy!
Let the rolls cool slightly before serving. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces like cheese sauce or garlic aioli.
