Ingredients

• 1 pound Ribeye steak
• 2 pieces Bell peppers (any color, sliced)
• 1 piece Onion (thinly sliced)
• 6 slices Provolone cheese
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 6 pieces Portobello mushroom caps (optional, for serving)
• 6 pieces Lettuce leaves (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

1. Prepare the ribeye steak by placing it in the freezer for 20 minutes to make slicing easier. Once slightly firm, thinly slice the steak against the grain into bite-sized strips.

Step 2

2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced steak to the skillet and season it with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until no longer pink. Remove the steak and set aside.

Step 3

3. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Sauté for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 4

4. Lower the heat to medium and return the cooked steak to the skillet. Stir to combine the steak with the peppers and onions.

Step 5

5. Lay the slices of provolone cheese over the steak and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese melts.

Step 6

6. If using portobello mushroom caps, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Remove the stems and scrape out the gills from the mushroom caps. Place them on a baking sheet, brush lightly with olive oil, and roast for 10 minutes until tender. Alternatively, you can use lettuce leaves as a lighter, fresher option.

Step 7

7. To assemble, spoon the cheesesteak mixture onto the portobello mushroom caps or lettuce leaves. Serve immediately and enjoy your low carb cheesesteak sandwiches!
