Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb ribeye or sirloin steak, thinly sliced

Vegetables

  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Other

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp salt (to taste)
  • 1 tsp black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
  • Chopped parsley (for garnish)
  • Cauliflower rice, mashed potatoes, or white rice (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Cook the steak: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add thinly sliced steak along with Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes until browned but still tender. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  2. Sauté the veggies: In the same skillet, add the sliced onion, green and red bell peppers, and minced garlic. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and slightly caramelize.
  3. Assemble the bowls: Prepare your choice of base—cauliflower rice for a low-carb option, mashed potatoes for creaminess, or white rice. Divide the base into serving bowls and top with the cooked steak and sautéed vegetables.
  4. Melt the cheese: Sprinkle shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese over the warm steak and vegetables in each bowl. Allow the cheese to melt naturally from the residual heat. For a golden, bubbly top, place bowls under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  5. Garnish and serve: Finish by sprinkling chopped parsley on top for a fresh, herbaceous touch. Serve immediately and enjoy your comforting Philly Cheesesteak Bowl.

Notes

  • Choose cauliflower rice for a low-carb, keto-friendly meal.
  • You can substitute ribeye or sirloin with any preferred tender steak that slices thinly.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste, especially salt and pepper.
  • For added heat, consider adding sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
  • This recipe yields 4 servings.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, warm in the microwave or in a skillet until heated through and cheese is melty again.
