SPICY JALAPEñO PHILLY CHEESE STEAK SLIDERS RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Spicy Jalapeño Philly Cheese Steak Sliders Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-25138

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 (1.5-pound) beef chuck roast, shaved into thin slices (most grocery store butchers will do this for you)
2 green bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 large onion, sliced into thin rings
2 cloves garlic, minced
12-ounces Kraft Philadelphia Spicy Jalapeño Cream Cheese
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
8 slices provolone cheese
8 pretzel rolls or other roll of choice for slider buns
salt and pepper to taste
2 to 3 tablespoons butter

Steps:

Heat oven to broil. Slice pretzels rolls in half and lightly butter each side. Arrange on a baking sheet and set aside. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add bell pepper, onion, and garlic and sauté until golden and soft. Remove from pan and set aside. Melt another tablespoon or 2 of butter in the pan and add sliced beef separating slices. Season with salt and pepper to taste and cook until meat is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in jalapeño cream cheese. You can always add more or less depending on how cheesy you want it. Remove from heat. Place about 1/4 a cup of meat on the bottom half of each roll. Top with a spoonful of pepper and onion mix. Top with a slice of provolone cheese. Broil in the oven until the provolone is melted and buns are toasted. COOK'S NOTE: If you can't find the Spicy Jalapeño Cream Cheese, make your own mixing 12-ounces cream cheese with 1 to 2 tablespoons diced jalapeño, making as mild or as spicy as you'd like. Using finely sliced beef chuck roast makes the meat really tender and perfect for cheese steak sandwiches. Most grocery store butchers will slice it for you, just tell them you're making cheese steak sandwiches with it!

Tips:

Prep the Jalapeños Properly: To minimize the spiciness of the jalapeños, remove the ribs and seeds before dicing them. Alternatively, you can wear gloves while handling them to protect your hands from the capsaicin, the compound that gives chili peppers their heat.
Use Fresh Ingredients: The freshness of the ingredients plays a crucial role in the overall taste of the sliders. Use ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and fluffy slider buns for the best results.
Don't Overcook the Beef: To achieve juicy and flavorful patties, cook the ground beef over medium heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Overcooking can make the patties dry and tough.
Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings. A flavorful blend of chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper is essential for creating delicious patties.
Toast the Slider Buns: Toasting the slider buns adds a delightful crispiness and enhances their flavor. You can toast them in a toaster, oven, or even on a lightly oiled pan.
Assemble with Care: When assembling the sliders, place a scoop of the beef patty on the bottom bun, followed by a slice of cheese, diced jalapeños, lettuce, tomato, and a drizzle of your favorite sauce. Finally, top it off with the other bun.

Conclusion:

Indulge in the tantalizing flavors of these spicy jalapeño sliders, where juicy beef patties, zesty jalapeños, melted cheese, and crisp veggies come together in perfect harmony. Ideal for casual gatherings, game days, or a quick and satisfying meal, these sliders are sure to be a hit.
