Ingredients
Vegetables
- 4 bell peppers, halved and seeded
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
Meat & Cheese
- 1 lb thinly sliced steak or shaved beef
- 6 slices provolone cheese
Seasonings & Oils
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to get it ready for baking the stuffed peppers.
- Sauté vegetables: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and mushrooms, cooking until they soften and become fragrant, about 5-7 minutes.
- Cook the steak: Add the thinly sliced steak or shaved beef to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Season with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally for even cooking.
- Prepare the peppers: Arrange the halved and seeded bell peppers in a baking dish, cut side up, ensuring they fit snugly but not overcrowded.
- Fill the peppers: Spoon the cooked steak and vegetable mixture evenly into each pepper half, filling them generously.
- Add cheese topping: Place a slice of provolone cheese on top of each stuffed pepper, covering the fillings.
- Bake: Bake the stuffed peppers in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Philly cheesesteak stuffed peppers warm as a satisfying low-carb meal.
Notes
- Use green bell peppers for a more traditional Philly cheesesteak flavor.
- You can substitute provolone cheese with mozzarella or cheddar if preferred.
- These stuffed peppers freeze well before baking—prepare in advance and bake when ready to serve.
