Insanely Easy Philly Cheesesteak Skillet

The most INSANE Philly Cheesesteak Skillet ready in 15 minutes in one skillet. This recipe is a healthier version of one of my personal favorite foods and you can enjoy it on top of a salad or on your favorite toasted bread.

I was obsessed with Philly Cheesesteaks growing up. Like beyond addicted to them. But what is there not to love? You have bread + steak + cheese and it is complete heaven.

When Jord and I were in college, we would drive to Philly (less than an hour from our school) and pick up cheesesteaks and drive back. I used to make them all the time growing up at home using some gross processed “cheesesteak” meat but damn did it taste good!

This recipe is going to be such a hit in your home, I cannot wait for you guys to try it. It is ready in just 15 minutes and is so flavorful and tender and delicious. I used some extra sirloin steaks we had from our last meat order. Our favorite steak to grill and eat is ribeye so with sirloins, I love to switch things up and make recipes like these.

This dish can be enjoyed straight from the skillet, on top of a salad or on your favorite bread. I actually forgot to get rolls when I was making this and ended up using toasted sourdough and it was perfect.

How to cook your Cheesesteak Skillet:

1. First, heat a large skillet on medium/high heat and add the steak strips and cook on medium for about 5 minutes, flipping after 2 minutes
2. Remove steak from pan and drain any excess fat from the steak (or leave it in and use as the oil)
3. Then add avocado oil to the skillet and warm over medium heat and add in the peppers, onion, garlic and salt and pepper and cover with lid and cook for about 8 minutes or until the veggies start to brown a bit
4. Add the steak back into the skillet and cook all together for a coupe minutes
5. Remove from heat and sprinkle the cheese on top and cover skillet with lid so cheese melts
6. Finally, serve from skillet on your favorite bread or on top of a salad
