Ingredients
Scale
Steak and Vegetables
- 1 pound Ribeye Steak, thinly sliced against the grain (can substitute flank or sirloin)
- 1 Yellow Onion, sliced (can substitute white onion for a sharper taste)
- 2 cups Bell Peppers, sliced (any variety)
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
Fries and Cheese
- 4 cups French Fries (homemade or store-bought)
- 8 ounces Provolone Cheese (can substitute mozzarella or pepper jack)
- 1 cup Cheese Sauce (optional, for a lighter version)
Garnish
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Fries: Cook your french fries according to package instructions or your preferred method until golden and crispy. You can bake, air fry, or deep-fry them depending on your preference.
- Sauté the Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until vegetables are softened and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes.
- Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, push the vegetables to the side and add the thinly sliced ribeye steak. Season with additional salt and pepper and cook quickly on high heat until browned and just cooked through, about 3-4 minutes.
- Combine Ingredients: Mix the steak and vegetables together evenly in the skillet and remove from heat.
- Assemble the Dish: Place the cooked fries on a large serving platter or individual plates. Evenly distribute the steak and vegetable mixture over the fries.
- Add Cheese: Layer slices of provolone cheese over the hot fries and steak mixture so it starts to melt. Alternatively, drizzle the optional cheese sauce over the top for a creamier finish.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the top for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy your indulgent Philly Steak Cheese Fries.
Notes
- You can substitute ribeye with flank or sirloin steak depending on availability and budget.
- Use white onion instead of yellow for a sharper flavor.
- Homemade fries enhance freshness but frozen fries are convenient and still delicious.
- Experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella or pepper jack to vary the flavor profile.
- The cheese sauce is optional for those looking to lighten the dish or add creaminess.
- Fresh parsley adds color and freshness but can be omitted if unavailable.
