Description
Philly Cheesesteak Bowl is a low-carb meal that captures the classic flavors of cheesesteak without the bun.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb shaved beef or thinly sliced ribeye
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small yellow onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp cream cheese
- Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in your large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Sprinkle a dash of salt and pepper over them and start sautéing. Keep stirring for about 6–8 minutes until the vegetables become tender and develop a beautiful, caramelized edge. Once done, transfer these to a plate and set aside.
- Using the same skillet, you might need to add a touch more olive oil. Place your shaved beef in the skillet, spreading it out so it sears evenly. Let the beef cook until it’s beautifully browned and thoroughly cooked—this should take about 5 minutes. Add joyously minced garlic and an optional dash of smoked paprika, stirring for just a minute to bring out the aromatic flavors.
- Bring back the sautéed veggies to the skillet, mixing them gently with the beef. In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream and cream cheese over low heat. Stir continuously until you have a smooth mixture, then add your provolone slices and stir until melted into a creamy cheese sauce. Pour this indulgent sauce over the beef and veggie mix. Divide among serving bowls and garnish with parsley if you wish. Enjoy while hot!
