Ingredients
- 1 pound shaved steak – or beef sliced into very thin strips
- 1 large yellow onion, sliced
- 2 cups cremini or button mushrooms, sliced – about 10 ounces
- Olive oil for cooking
- Lawry’s seasoned salt – to taste
- ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce – divided
- 3 green bell peppers – all about the same size, medium to large
- 12 slices provolone cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
- In a large skillet, heat a few drizzles of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shaved beef and cook until browned, seasoning with seasoned salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Near the end of cooking, add 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce and remove from the heat.
- In the same skillet, add more oil and sauté the sliced onions until soft and golden, about 6 minutes. Then add the sliced mushrooms and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Return the cooked beef to the pan and mix together. Taste and adjust seasonings, adding another teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
- Cut each green pepper in half, removing seeds and stems. In a large pot, parboil the peppers in boiling water for 5-7 minutes until they're crisp-tender but not mushy. Remove and dry with paper towels.
- Stuff the prepared filling into the par-cooked pepper halves, including a layer of cheese in the center for extra cheesiness. Arrange the stuffed peppers in a baking pan, topping with another layer of provolone cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the cheese is thoroughly melted. Serve warm.
Notes
Using a mixture of mushrooms adds depth to the flavor. You can also use different types of cheese based on your preference.
For added flavor, feel free to toss in some chopped fresh herbs like parsley or basil before serving.
If you prefer a bit of heat, add sliced jalapeños or red pepper flakes into the filling.
