🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grab your 9x13 inch baking dish and set it aside. This is gonna be good!
- In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add 1 pound of thinly sliced steak (ribeye or sirloin are delicious!). Cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked to your liking. Season generously with salt and pepper. Don't overcook it though, we want some juicy bits!
- Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set it aside. In the same skillet, melt 1/2 cup of butter over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup of chopped onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. This step adds such a nice flavor to the whole thing.
- Stir in 1/2 cup of sliced green bell peppers to the onions and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until slightly tender. Yumm!
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked steak, onions, and peppers. Add 2 cups of shredded provolone cheese (or your favorite cheese blend!), 1/2 cup of beef broth, 1/4 cup of Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of garlic powder. Mix everything until well combined. It's starting to look delicious already!
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded provolone cheese. This is my favorite part—that glorious cheese topping.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown. The aroma alone is enough to make you drool!
- Let the casserole sit for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the cheese to set a little and makes it easier to cut. Serve it hot and enjoy your amazing Philly Cheesesteak Casserole!
📝 Notes
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried thyme or oregano.
- If you want a spicier kick, add some red pepper flakes!
