🧀 Ingredients
- 6 slices thin-sliced deli roast beef or shaved steak
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 small green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 small red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 6 slices provolone cheese
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese (optional for extra creaminess)
🥘 Ingredient Notes
- Roast Beef: Choose high-quality thin-sliced roast beef for easy rolling. Shaved ribeye also works!
- Provolone Cheese: Melts beautifully and gives that classic Philly flavor.
- Peppers & Onion: Add natural sweetness and the signature cheesesteak taste.
- Cream Cheese: Adds richness and helps bind the roll ups.
- Spices: Simple seasoning keeps it flavorful without overpowering the beef.
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Sauté the Veggies
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and peppers, cooking until they soften and turn slightly golden. This brings out the natural sweetness and that iconic cheesesteak aroma.
2. Season the Mixture
Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper over the veggies. Stir well to coat everything evenly with warm, savory flavor.
3. Prepare the Beef Slices
Lay each slice of roast beef flat on a cutting board. If using cream cheese, spread a thin layer across the center for extra creamy filling.
4. Add the Veggie Filling
Spoon a small amount of the sautéed pepper-onion mixture onto one end of each beef slice. Add a half slice of provolone on top.
5. Roll Them Up
Carefully roll each slice tightly, tucking the filling inside. Place seam-side down in a baking dish.
6. Melt the Cheese
Top each roll up with a slice of provolone cheese and bake in the oven at 375°F for about 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden around the edges.
7. Serve Hot and Fresh
Let them cool slightly so the cheese sets, then enjoy the gooey, savory deliciousness!
