Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Ribeye or flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 1/2 cup beef broth or water
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese or provolone cheese, shredded
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)

 

  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Ingredients: Slice the steak into thin strips. Slice bell peppers, onion, and mushrooms (if using), and mince the garlic. Set aside.
  • Cook the Steak: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced steak and season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir occasionally, cooking for about 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add more oil or butter if needed. Sauté the onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms for 5-7 minutes until softened. Add garlic during the last minute.
  • Create the Sauce: Add beef broth or water to deglaze the skillet. Stir to release any browned bits, then reduce the liquid slightly. Stir in Worcestershire sauce and heavy cream. Let simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken.
  • Add the Cheese: Reduce heat to low, add shredded cheese to the skillet, and stir until melted and creamy.
  • Combine Steak and Veggies: Add the cooked steak back into the skillet, stirring to combine. Let it simmer for another 1-2 minutes to coat everything in the sauce.

 

  • Serve: Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Cheese: Use mozzarella, Swiss, or pepper jack for a different flavor.
  • Spicy: Add sliced jalapeños or a few dashes of hot sauce.
  • Low-Carb/Keto: Serve without bread, or over cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles.

 

  • Meat Substitutes: Use chicken or turkey breast for a leaner version.
