Hey there, foodies! It’s your favorite kitchen companion here, back with another drool-worthy recipe to spark joy in your culinary journey. Today we’re diving deep into comfort food territory with a sumptuous twist on a Philly classic – Philly Cheesesteak Fries! Now I don’t know about you, but combining the sizzling flavors of a traditional cheesesteak with the crispy satisfaction of well-done fries? That’s a win-win situation in my book!
Alright, let’s get to it! But first, let’s make sure you’re fully equipped for this tasty adventure.
What You’ll Need:
- 1 lb beef meat (I’m using sirloin, but go wild with your favorite cut)
- 2 green bell peppers, thinly sliced
- 2 yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- Garlic powder to taste
- Onion powder to taste
- Pink salt or regular salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Chili powder to taste
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
- Pepper for garnish
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
- Cooked fries, as many as you’d like (this is your personal plate of happiness, after all!)
Step-by-Step Guide to Deliciousness:
- Start by heating a cast-iron pan with a splash of oil. Once heated, drop in your beef and tear it apart with your spatula. We’re aiming for even cooking, so breaking up the meat is key.
- Next, bring on the veggies! Toss in your sliced green bell peppers and yellow onions. Let these buddies cook, covered, for about 5 minutes. Remember to give them a good stir every now and then to make sure they’re not feeling lonely. (source: Ineskohl.info)
- It’s butter time! Add in 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter and stir it in as it melts, bathing your meat and veggies in its golden glory.
- Now for the seasonings. Sprinkle in some garlic powder, onion powder, a pinch of salt (pink or regular, your pick), a dash of black pepper, and a hint of chili powder. Don’t forget that extra dollop of butter for an added layer of flavor and juiciness. Stir everything together and let the magic happen under the lid for an additional 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes, give it a good stir to make sure nothing’s sticking to the bottom. Continue to stir occasionally until everything’s cooked through.
- Almost there! Now, it’s time to introduce your mozzarella to the pan. Scatter it evenly over your cooked meat and veggies, add a sprinkle of pepper, and a sprinkle of chopped parsley for that picture-perfect look. Cover and let the cheese melt into a gooey delight.
- Finally, arrange your cooked fries on a plate and lay your sizzling Philly cheesesteak mix right on top. And voila! A meal so satisfying, it’ll have you reaching for seconds in no time!
See, cooking can be both fun and easy! Remember, you can customize this recipe as much as you want. Not a fan of mozzarella? Try provolone! Want a bit of a kick? Toss in some jalapenos! It’s all about making the food you love, your way. So get in that kitchen and let’s start cooking up a storm!
