Ingredients
Scale
Produce
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
Meat
- 225 g thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak
Pantry
- 15 ml olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2.5 ml garlic powder
- 2.5 ml Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tube (225 g) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Dairy
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
- Sauté Vegetables and Cook Steak: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onion and green bell pepper and sauté until softened and fragrant. Then add the ribeye or sirloin steak slices, seasoning with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until the steak is browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally.
- Assemble Crescent Ring: Unroll the crescent roll dough and arrange the triangles in a circle on the prepared baking sheet with the points facing outward, forming a ring shape. Layer the provolone cheese slices evenly over the arranged dough, then spread the cooked steak and vegetable mixture evenly on top. Carefully fold the dough points over the filling and tuck them underneath the ring to seal the crescent ring.
- Apply Egg Wash and Add Sesame Seeds: Brush the assembled crescent ring generously with the beaten egg wash to enhance browning and shine. If desired, sprinkle sesame seeds on top for added texture and visual appeal.
- Bake and Cool: Bake the ring in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and cooked through. Once baked, allow the ring to cool slightly on a wire rack before slicing into portions and serving warm.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin for the best texture and flavor in the steak filling.
- Be sure to sauté the vegetables until soft to maximize flavor.
- Make sure to tuck the dough points securely under the ring to prevent filling leakage during baking.
- You can customize this recipe with different cheese varieties or add mushrooms for extra flavor.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven for best texture retention.
