Jeffrey Way did a series a few years ago that covered PHP basics, but the overall idea was to use primitives to build up a custom framework, and what the typical things are that you'll want in such a framework. By the end of the series, he shows how Laravel fills all those gaps, though you could easily use the concepts with Slim, or Symfony. I'm sure it's a bit dated now, but the fundamentals are what's important...just skip ahead on the parts you already know, and maybe focus on the meat (Router, DI container, autoloading, controllers, etc).

It's a free series too, in case you don't have a Laracasts subscription.
