Equipment

  • 1 Air Fryer optional

Ingredients

  • 1 roll puff pastry I used jus-rol
  • 1/2 lb rib eye steak thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup onion minced
  • 1/2 cup green pepper minced
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese plus more to garnish
  • 5 slices American cheese
  • 5 slices mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Olive oil for cooking

Garnish

  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • 1/2 tsp parsley dried

Instructions

  • In a pan over high heat, add olive oil and thinly sliced rib eye. Season with salt, black pepper and garlic powder.
  • Cook until half way done and add in the minced onion, green pepper and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Continue cooking until the steak is to your preferred doneness and the onions and green pepper are tender and slightly browned. Set aside and allow to cool.
  • Roll out the puff pastry and cut into 3 inch wide strips. You should be able to get 4-5 strips from one roll.
  • First lay down some American cheese, followed by the cooked steak, then a half slice of American and a half slice of mozzarella cheese. Make sure to leave room around the edges.
  • Fold over the empty side and using a fork, crimp the edges to seal completely.
  • Transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet and make 3 cuts across the tops to allow air to pass through.
  • Brush on melted butter and top with parmesan cheese and place in a preheated oven at 425F.
  • Bake for 14-16 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.

Air Fryer Instructions

  • Place in the air fryer tray or basket and air fry at 400F for 15-18 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.
  • Brush on melted butter and sprinkle on some parmesan cheese and dried parsley.
  • Enjoy!
