Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound thinly sliced ribeye steak
  • 1 pack (12 slider-sized) Hawaiian rolls
  • 6 to 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Optional: hot sauce or mayo for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Thinly slice the yellow onion and green bell pepper. Mince the garlic cloves and set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and peppers, season lightly with salt, and cook for 10-12 minutes until caramelized. Add minced garlic in the last 2 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the same skillet and increase heat to medium-high. Add the ribeye steak, season with salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned but still juicy. Avoid overcooking.
  5. Return the caramelized onions and peppers to the skillet and mix gently with the steak. Remove from heat.
  6. Slice the pack of Hawaiian rolls horizontally, keeping tops and bottoms intact as a whole slab. Place the bottom half on a rimmed baking sheet.
  7. Spread the steak and veggie mixture evenly over the bottom half of the rolls.
  8. Layer 6-8 slices of provolone cheese over the meat mixture.
  9. Place the top half of the rolls over the cheese layer.
  10. Melt 1 tablespoon butter and brush it generously over the tops of the rolls.
  11. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes until cheese is melted and tops are lightly toasted.
  12. Remove from oven, slice between each roll to separate sliders, and serve warm with optional hot sauce or mayo.

Notes

Freeze the steak for 30 minutes before slicing to get thin strips easily. Avoid overcrowding the skillet when cooking steak for better browning. Use fresh or room temperature Hawaiian rolls for best texture. Caramelize onions and peppers low and slow for maximum sweetness. Brush melted butter on rolls before baking for a golden crust. Reheat leftovers in the oven at 325°F for 10 minutes to keep rolls soft and cheese melty; avoid microwaving.
