A bold fusion of Philly cheesesteak and grilled cheese in a burrito form, combining tender steak, sautéed veggies, and melted cheese wrapped in a golden, crispy tortilla.

Ingredients

1 lb thinly sliced beef steak (ribeye or sirloin)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, thinly sliced

1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced

Salt and black pepper to taste

4 large flour tortillas

8 slices provolone or American cheese

2 tablespoons butter, softened

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
  2. Add the thinly sliced beef steak to the skillet with the onions and peppers. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the steak is browned and cooked through.
  3. Remove the beef and vegetable mixture from the skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Place one tortilla in the skillet, and top with 2 slices of cheese. Add a portion of the beef and vegetable mixture on top of the cheese. Place another slice of cheese on top and then cover with a second tortilla.
  5. Grill the burrito on both sides for 2-3 minutes each, until the tortilla is golden brown and the cheese is melted inside.
  6. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling, adding butter to the skillet as needed.
  7. Once all burritos are grilled, slice them in half and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a spicy kick, add jalapeños or hot sauce to the filling.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute the beef with grilled portobello mushrooms or a plant-based protein.
  • Consider adding mushrooms for an earthy flavor that complements the beef and veggies.
  • For a healthier version, use lean cuts of beef, whole wheat tortillas, and reduced-fat cheese.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven.
