How to Make Easy Philly Cheesesteak Crescent Ring Recipe for Dinner

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven and skillet: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Step 2: Cook the steak: Season the steak with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Cook in the preheated skillet for 3-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Step 3: Cook the vegetables: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Cook until softened and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. Step 4: Assemble the crescent ring: Unroll the crescent roll dough and press the seams together to form a large circle. Place the dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread the cooked steak, vegetables, and shredded cheese evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border. Fold the border over the filling and press to seal.
  5. Step 5: Bake the crescent ring: Bake the crescent ring in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
