Philly cheesesteak casserole ingredients:

here is the ingredient line up…

  • skirt steak: sliced thin against the grain- the base of our skillet. 
  • veggies: I use caramelized sweet peppers, red onion, fresh garlic and cremini mushrooms.
  • fresh thyme: this is unconventional- but I love the herby freshness it adds to the dish. 
  • beef stock: creates a simple pan sauce. this is my fave brand. 
  • whole grain mustard: flavors our quick pan sauce. 
  • coconut aminos: also flavors our quick pan sauce. 
  • spices: this skillet is simply seasoned with mineral salt, granulated garlic and freshly-cracked black pepper. 
  • cheese: although cheez-whiz Is traditionally used on philly cheesesteaks, I added a nutty pecorino which paired beautifully.

how to make:

this recipe is very simple, but components come together quickly. make sure to have everything sliced, diced and measured so it’s ready to go when you need it. you will begin by searing your steak in a screaming hot pan then setting aside. next, add the veggies to the pan to caramelize and soften. next, stir in the quick pan sauce components to deglaze the delicious brown bits from the bottom of the pan. return the steak to the skillet to warm through, and finish with shaved pecorino and fresh thyme. serve solo with steamed rice or piled high in warm slider rolls.
