Instructions
-
Preheat Oven:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare the Filling:
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add sliced steak, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Cook for 2-3 minutes until browned.

Assemble the Stromboli:

- Sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top.
-
Roll and Seal:
- Carefully roll the dough into a log, starting from the long edge. Tuck in the ends and pinch to seal.
- Place the stromboli seam-side down on the baking sheet.
-
Add Toppings & Bake:
- Brush the top with beaten egg.
- Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and Parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp.
-
Cool & Serve:
- Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Serve with marinara sauce or garlic butter for dipping.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add provolone cheese along with mozzarella.
