📝 Ingredients
Note: This is an overview of the ingredients. You'll find the full measurements and instructions in the recipe card (printable) at the bottom of the page.
🥄 Instructions
Note: This is an overview of the instructions. The detailed instructions are in the recipe card below.
- In an oven safe large skillet heat oil over medium-high heat and sauté onions and bell pepper.
- Add ground beef and brown until no longer pink then drain excess fat.
- Sprinkle flour and mix in milk. When the mixture heats up, mix in the cream cheese. Turn heat off and top the meat with slices of provolone cheese.
- Bake in the oven until the cheese melts and is bubbly.
💡 Tips
- If you do not have an oven safe skillet, you can transfer the ground beef mixture to a casserole dish and top the meat with provolone cheese. Then continue to bake in the oven until the cheese melts and is bubbly.
- I've used a combination of red and green bell peppers. Traditional Philly Cheesesteak uses green bell peppers but if it causes you trouble feel free to use any color you like.
🧺 Storage
Store leftover Philly cheesecake in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave.
⌛ Make Ahead
Ground beef Philly cheesesteak can be made ahead of time by browning the ground beef, sautéing the veggies and when ready to eat, add the sliced provolone cheese and bake until bubbly.
