This Cheesy Philly Cheesesteak Delight will surely become a staple in your household, satisfying both young and old alike.


Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 oz sliced provolone cheese (for topping)
  • Cooking spray, for greasing

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion and bell pepper until they’re tender and golden, about 5 minutes. Add in the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  3. Cook the Beef: Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until the beef is browned and crumbled, which should take around 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
  4. Combine the Ingredients: Stir in the Worcestershire sauce and then the cream cheese until well combined and the cream cheese is melted. Pour in the beef broth and let it simmer for a couple of minutes to get all those flavors to mingle.
  5. Assemble the Casserole: Remove the skillet from the heat and spoon the beef mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle both the shredded provolone and mozzarella evenly over the beef.
  6. Add the Cheese Topping: Lay the sliced provolone cheese on top to cover the casserole. I like to overlap the slices a bit to ensure every bite has that gooey cheese pull.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling and starts to get those irresistible golden-brown spots.
  8. Serve: Let the casserole stand for about 5 minutes before serving – if you can wait that long!

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, use fresh onions and bell peppers. Frozen vegetables can work in a pinch but may release more moisture, potentially making the dish a bit watery.
  • Don’t Overcook the Beef: Browning the beef too much can make it tough. Cook it until it’s just crumbled and browned for a tender texture.
  • Layering Cheese: Ensure the cheese is evenly spread. This helps create that perfect, gooey layer of melted cheese on top.
