Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ribeye steak
- 2 medium Bell peppers
- 1 large Onion
- 8 ounces Mushrooms
- 8 slices Provolone cheese
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 4 large Romaine lettuce leaves
Instructions
Place the ribeye steak in the freezer for 15 minutes to make it easier to slice thinly.
While the steak is in the freezer, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips. Clean and slice the mushrooms.
Remove the steak from the freezer and slice it as thin as possible across the grain.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the bell peppers, onion, and mushrooms to the skillet, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Add the sliced steak, and season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Cook the steak for about 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned but not overcooked.
Return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet with the steak, and toss to combine.
Reduce heat to low and top the steak and veggies with provolone cheese slices. Cover for 1-2 minutes until the cheese melts.
Serve sizzling steak and vegetables on large romaine lettuce leaves. Each person should take one lettuce leaf, fill it with the steak and cheese mixture, and enjoy their delicious low-carb Philly cheesesteak.
