Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Thinly slice the ribeye steak into strips. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak strips and sear for 2-3 minutes until brown, then remove from the skillet and set aside.
Slice the onion and mushrooms. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Add onions and cook until they start to soften, about 3 minutes.
Add the mushrooms to the onions and cook for another 5 minutes, until both are tender.
Stir the cooked steak back into the skillet with the onions and mushrooms. Add Worcestershire sauce and mix everything well. Cook for another 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Slice the green bell peppers in half lengthwise and remove the seeds and membranes to create 'pepper boats'.
Place the pepper halves on a baking sheet, cut side up. Evenly distribute the steak mixture into each of the pepper halves.
Top each filled pepper with a slice of provolone cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve the low carb Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches hot and enjoy.
