- 4 large bell peppers, halved and seeded
- 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye steak
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 8 oz provolone cheese, sliced or shredded
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion and green bell pepper and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the thinly sliced steak to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the steak is browned and cooked through.
- Place the halved bell peppers cut-side up in a baking dish.
- Spoon the steak and onion mixture evenly into the bell pepper halves.
- Top each stuffed pepper with slices or shredded provolone cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with foil.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender. Remove foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Notes
- For a Cheez Whiz version, substitute 4 oz of Cheez Whiz for the provolone cheese.
- Ribeye is recommended for its tenderness, but flank steak or sirloin can also be used. Slice the steak thinly against the grain.
- You can prepare the filling ahead of time and stuff the peppers just before baking.
- To reheat, place stuffed peppers on a baking sheet and warm in a 350°F (175°C) oven until heated through. Avoid microwaving to prevent sogginess.
