Ingredients
Scale
Gathering your ingredients before you start cooking can make the whole process smoother. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 pound of thinly sliced beef sirloin or ribeye
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option)
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Feel free to substitute the bell peppers with mushrooms or add a dash of hot sauce for extra kick. I always encourage a bit of creativity in the kitchen; after all, it’s how my grandmother taught me to cook—a pinch of this, a handful of that.
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced beef, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil. Toss in the onions and bell peppers, sautéing until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. The aroma will remind you of those family dinners where everyone eagerly gathers around the table.
- Return the beef to the skillet, mixing it with the vegetables. Allow them to cook together for another 2-3 minutes, letting the flavors meld beautifully.
- To assemble the bowls, start with a base of cooked rice, then layer on the beef and vegetable mixture. Top each bowl with shredded provolone cheese, allowing it to melt from the heat of the ingredients.
- Serve immediately, and watch as your family digs in, creating yet another moment to cherish together.
These steps are straightforward, ensuring you spend less time cooking and more time enjoying the meal with loved ones, just like we do at our family table.
