  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) of thinly sliced beef sirloin or ribeye
  • 1 large bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: sliced mushrooms, hot sauce, fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Begin by slicing the beef, bell peppers, and onions thinly. Mince the garlic and set aside. Preheat your skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tbsp of olive oil.
  2. Add half of the olive oil to the hot skillet. Once shimmering, add the sliced beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Sauté sliced onions and bell peppers until softened and caramelized, approximately 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic in the last minute.
  4. Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Mix well and sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the top. Cover and cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts. For a crispy top, uncover and cook for another minute.

Notes

  • Feel free to add mushrooms, jalapeños, or extra cheese for variation.
  • You can substitute the beef with chicken or turkey for a leaner version.
  • Serve over cauliflower rice or zucchini noodles for extra low carb fiber.
