Description
The Philly Cheesesteak Bowl is a delightful twist on the classic sandwich, combining tender beef, sautéed vegetables, and melted cheese over a bed of fluffy rice.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450 g) thinly sliced beef: Ribeye or sirloin works best for tenderness and flavor.
- 1 medium bell pepper: Choose either red or green for a pop of color and sweetness.
- 1 medium onion: Sliced onions add a savory depth to the dish.
- 2 cups cooked rice: White or brown rice serves as the hearty base for your bowl.
- 1 cup provolone cheese: Shredded or sliced, this cheese melts beautifully over the hot ingredients.
- 2 tablespoons olive oil: For sautéing the vegetables and beef, adding richness to the dish.
- 2 cloves garlic: Minced garlic enhances the overall flavor profile.
- Salt and pepper: Essential for seasoning to taste.
- Optional: Fresh parsley for garnish, adding a touch of freshness and color.
Instructions
- Prepare all your ingredients by slicing the beef, bell pepper, and onion. Cook the rice according to package instructions.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add one tablespoon of olive oil, and cook the thinly sliced beef seasoned with salt and pepper for about 3-5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, sauté the sliced onion and bell pepper for about 5-7 minutes until tender, then add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
- Combine the sautéed vegetables with the cooked beef in the skillet and mix gently, cooking for another minute.
- Assemble the bowl by placing a bed of warm cooked rice in each serving bowl, topping it with the beef and vegetable mixture, and sprinkling shredded provolone cheese on top. Cover the skillet for a minute to let the cheese melt.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, substitute beef with a mix of mushrooms, zucchini, and eggplant.
- For a spicy kick, add jalapeños or use spicy pepper jack cheese.
- Consider marinating the beef for enhanced flavor.
