How To Make Air Fryer Italian Beef Stromboli

Preheat the air fryer to 400* for 5 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, combine shaved steak, Worcestershire, minced garlic, sea salt, pepper, lime juice, onion, and peppers. Toss to distribute sauce and seasoning evenly. Add to an 8-inch baking dish.

Place into the air fryer and cook for 15 minutes. Remove and let cool for 5 minutes as the air fryer preheats for the next step. 

Preheat the air fryer to 375* for 5 minutes. Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured wooden cutting board.

Spread steak onion and pepper mixture over the top 3/4 of the puff pastry. Top with provolone cheese slices. Tightly roll the puff pastry towards the empty end. 

Brush puff pastry with egg wash, then sprinkle Montreal steak seasoning over the top. Make slits across the top to help aerate.

Place into the air fryer, careful to keep the seam on the bottom—Cook for 10 minutes. Carefully flip the stromboli over and cook for five more minutes. 

Pro Tips:

Parchment Paper or Aluminum Foil: Line your basket with either parchment paper or aluminum foil. Either will work for this recipe.

Space: Leave plenty of space around the stromboli, which browns up perfectly.

Flipping: Depending on what air fryer you own, you may need to flip the stromboli halfway during the cooking process.

FAQ’s:

What is the difference between calzone and stromboli?

What’s the difference between Calzone and Stromboli? If you’re not sure, you’re not alone. A lot of people get the two Italian dishes confused.

Calzones and stromboli are delicious, but they have a difference that will make you want to try them both! Calzone is made of dough folded into an envelope shape. The half-moon crust gives way to rich flavors from the inside as it’s baked until golden brown on top.

Calzones are usually made for one person, while strombolis are made for a crowd and cut into pieces.

Yes, you can either assemble it and then store it in the refrigerator until baking or make it ahead of time and reheat it in the air fryer.
