A quick and easy creamy dip combining tender thinly sliced steak, melty provolone and mozzarella cheeses, and caramelized onions for a nostalgic, crowd-pleasing appetizer perfect for parties and game days.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced (optional)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Crackers, toasted baguette slices, or sturdy veggies like celery and carrots for serving

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice 1 pound of ribeye or sirloin steak against the grain (about ¼-inch slices). Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak in a single layer and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned but still tender. Remove steak from pan and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add thinly sliced onion and diced green bell pepper (if using). Cook over medium heat for 8-10 minutes until softened and caramelized, stirring occasionally. Add minced garlic for the last minute until fragrant.
  4. In a large bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, sour cream, shredded provolone, and shredded mozzarella. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, and salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Fold the cooked steak and sautéed veggies into the cheese mixture until well incorporated.
  6. Spoon the dip into an oven-safe dish or back into the skillet and spread evenly.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the dip for 20-25 minutes, or until hot and bubbly with lightly golden edges.
  8. Let the dip cool for 5 minutes before serving with crackers, toasted baguette slices, or fresh veggies.

Notes

If cream cheese isn’t fully softened, microwave for 15 seconds to ease mixing. Avoid overcooking steak to keep it tender. Add a splash of milk if dip is too thick before baking. For gluten-free, use gluten-free crackers or veggies. For dairy-free, substitute cream cheese and sour cream with coconut-based alternatives. Freeze leftovers up to 2 months.
