A quick, saucy take on a classic Philly cheesesteak using ground beef for a faster and easier preparation.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20)
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 bell pepper (any color), sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded (or thin slices)
  • 4 hoagie rolls, or cooked rice for serving
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 12 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  2. Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened and beginning to brown — about 6–8 minutes. Season lightly with salt.
  3. Push the cooked vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the ground beef to the empty side and break it up with a spatula. Cook until fully browned, about 6–8 minutes.
  4. Season the beef with salt and pepper, then mix it with the sautéed vegetables until evenly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded provolone evenly over the beef-and-veggie mixture. Cover the skillet and let sit 1–2 minutes, or until the cheese melts.
  6. Spoon the filling into hoagie rolls, or serve over a bed of hot cooked rice. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

Serve with a smear of mayo or garlic butter on hoagie rolls, or over cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
