Season the ribeye steak with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika on both sides.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until your desired level of doneness is reached. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
Add the thinly sliced bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Sprinkle with garlic powder, and sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened and slightly caramelized.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Place the almond flour sandwich thins on a baking sheet. Layer each sandwich thin with the sautéed onion and bell peppers, followed by thinly sliced steak and a slice of provolone cheese.
Bake in the oven for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Assemble the sandwich by placing the second almond flour sandwich thin on top.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low carb steak and cheese sandwich!
