Chef's Note

For the most authentic Philly cheesesteak flavor, look for thinly shaved ribeye beef at your butcher counter. If you can't find pre-shaved beef, you can partially freeze a ribeye steak and then slice it very thinly against the grain. For a time-saving tip, you can pre-cook the peppers in the microwave for 2-3 minutes before stuffing to reduce the final baking time.

Ingredients
  • 4 whole large bell peppers

  • 1 pound shaved beef

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1 medium yellow onion

  • 1 medium green bell pepper

  • 8 ounces mushrooms

  • 2 cloves garlic

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 6 ounces provolone cheese

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions
  • 1

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • 2

    Cut the 4 large bell peppers in half lengthwise and remove seeds and membranes. Place cut-side up in a baking dish.

  • 3

    Slice 1 medium yellow onion and 1 medium green bell pepper into thin strips. Slice 8 ounces of mushrooms and mince 2 cloves of garlic.

  • 4

    Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.

  • 5

    Add the sliced green peppers and mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until vegetables are tender.

  • 6

    Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a bowl.

  • 7

    In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add 1 pound of shaved beef, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano.

  • 8

    Cook the beef for 2-3 minutes until just browned. Add 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce and stir to combine.

  • 9

    Return the vegetable mixture to the skillet with the beef and stir to combine everything well.

  • 10

    Spoon the beef and vegetable mixture evenly into the bell pepper halves. Top each with sliced provolone cheese (about 3/4 ounce per pepper half).

  • 11

    Bake for 15 minutes until the peppers are tender and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
