2. Slice the top off the Italian bread loaf and hollow out the center, creating a boat-like shape. Set the hollowed-out bread aside.
3. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the thinly sliced beef until browned. Add the sliced bell peppers and onions, and sauté until the vegetables are soft. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Brush the inside of the hollowed-out bread with the garlic butter. Fill the bread with the beef and vegetable mixture, then top it generously with the shredded provolone cheese.
5. Place the stuffed loaf on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6. Sprinkle the top of the loaf with freshly chopped parsley. Slice and serve hot.
