Instructions

Begin by preparing all filling ingredients before assembling the stromboli.

Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat for cooking vegetables.

Add sliced onions and cook for 8-10 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized.

Add bell peppers and mushrooms, cooking until tender and golden brown.

Season vegetables with salt, pepper, and minced garlic during last minute.

Remove cooked vegetables from skillet and set aside to cool completely.

In same skillet, cook thinly sliced steak over high heat in batches.

Season steak with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

Add Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and beef broth to deglaze pan.

Cook steak just until no longer pink, about 2-3 minutes total.

Remove steak from heat and let cool slightly before assembling stromboli.

Preheat oven to 450°F and line baking sheet with parchment paper.

Roll pizza dough into large rectangle on floured surface, about 12x16 inches.

Spread softened cream cheese in thin layer down center of dough.

Layer cooked steak, vegetables, and all cheeses over cream cheese base.

Leave 2-inch border on all sides for proper sealing during rolling.

Starting from long side, carefully roll dough tightly around filling ingredients.

Pinch seam closed and tuck ends under to create sealed package.

Transfer rolled stromboli seam-side down to prepared baking sheet.

Brush entire surface with egg wash mixture for golden brown finish.

Sprinkle with sesame seeds, Italian seasoning, and coarse sea salt.

Cut 4-5 diagonal slashes on top to allow steam to escape.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Let stromboli rest for 10 minutes before slicing to allow filling to set.

Slice into thick portions and serve with warm marinara sauce and garlic aioli.
