PREP: 15 MINUTES
COOK: 15 MINUTES
TOTAL TIME: 30 MINUTES
INGREDIENTS:
1 pound lean ground beef
2 tablespoons butter
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 small green bell pepper, diced
8 ounces brown mushrooms minced
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup beef broth
8 ounces Provolone Cheese Slices, chopped (use 6oz if you don’t want it very cheesy)
6 brioche hamburger buns
One of the great things about this recipe is its versatility. While traditional Philly cheese steaks are typically made with thinly sliced steak, here, we use lean ground beef as a more accessible and budget-friendly alternative. The ground beef is browned to perfection in a large cast iron skillet, creating a deep, caramelized crust that adds layers of flavor to the dish.
But the magic truly happens when we add in the vegetables. Diced onions, green bell peppers, and minced brown mushrooms are sautéed in butter until they’re tender and golden brown, infusing the dish with their sweet and savory notes. Not only do these veggies add texture and flavor, but they also sneak in some extra nutrients, making this meal both delicious and nutritious.
Next comes the sauce—a savory blend of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper, along with a cornstarch-thickened beef broth that adds richness and depth. As the sauce simmers and thickens, it coats every morsel of beef and veggies, creating a luscious, velvety texture that is pure comfort food bliss.
