Philadelphia Cheesesteak Slider Ingredients
You just need a handful of ingredients to get that famous Philly flavor.

- Bell peppers – green and/or red, sliced
- Onions – white or yellow, sliced
- Sliced Provolone cheese or American cheese – Cheez Whiz or cheddar cheese spread is also an acceptable substitute
- Worcestershire sauce – use a fish free sub if needed
- Onion Soup mix – You can use leftover soup mix and pan drippings to make an au jus for dipping
- Butter – melted, for topping the buns
- Seasonings – garlic powder, salt, and black pepper

Substitutions & Alterations
- Use sliced deli roast beef instead of fresh steak (saves time).

- Veggies – Add jalapeños for spice or add sliced mushrooms if preferred.
- Swap Hawaiian rolls with mini Hoagie rolls (Amoroso’s if you can find them!) for a more authentic Philly sandwich.
How to Make Philly Cheesesteak Sliders
Step by Step Instructions Overview – Follow the complete recipe card directions for the best results.
Step 1 – Preheat your oven to 400°F. Cook the sliced onions and green peppers in a skillet
Step 2 – Add the shaved steak to the pan along with Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Step 3 – Slice the sweet rolls in half horizontally. Spread the steak and vegetable mixture over the bottom buns evenly
Step 4 – Lay provolone cheese slices over the top of the steak, then place the top half of the buns back on.
Step 5 –Mix together the melted butter and dry onion soup mix. Brush this mixture the tops of the buns.
Step 6 – Bake for 17-20 minutes until the tops are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Raquel’s Time Saving Tips
- Ask the grocery store butcher to slice the steak meat “shaved thin”.
- Use pre-sliced steak or you can even use deli roast beef.
- Slice vegetables ahead of time and store in the refrigerator until ready.
- Use a frozen pepper/onion blend instead of chopping fresh. They cook down beautifully and cut prep time in half.
- Keep the rolls attached when slicing for easy topping. Slice individual sandwiches when they are finished cooking.
- Use a large sheet pan for assembling and baking multiple slider batches at once if feeding a crowd.
Serving and Storage Suggestions
- Serve with French fries, onion rings, or potato chips. I love them with my Roasted Smashed Potatoes or Crispy Parmesan Accordion Potatoes.
- These sliders are also great with a side of au jus or garlic aioli for dipping.
- I love eating these with pepperoncini or marinated cherry peppers on the side.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. Eat within 3-4 days.
