Ingredients

For the Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll-Ups:

• Thinly sliced ribeye steak (or flank steak)
• Bell peppers (green or red)
• Onion
• Garlic
• Cream cheese
• Provolone cheese (or mozzarella, if preferred)
• Olive oil (or butter)
• Salt and pepper
• Optional: Mushrooms, for extra flavor and texture
• Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

(Note: Full ingredient measurements are provided in the recipe card below.)

Instructions

Step 1: Sauté the Vegetables

Start by heating olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, bell peppers, and garlic to the pan. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened and caramelized slightly. If you’re adding mushrooms, toss them in here too and cook until they’ve released their moisture and are tender. Set the veggies aside.

Step 2: Cook the Steak

In the same skillet, add the thinly sliced ribeye steak (or flank steak). Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the steak is browned and cooked through. Since the steak is thinly sliced, it won’t take long to cook, so keep an eye on it. Once cooked, remove the steak from the pan and set aside.

Step 3: Assemble the Roll-Ups

Now it’s time to assemble the roll-ups! Lay out a slice of provolone cheese (or mozzarella) on a clean surface or cutting board. Spoon a bit of the sautéed vegetables and cooked steak onto the center of the cheese slice. Add a dollop of cream cheese for a creamy, cheesy center. Then, carefully roll everything up tightly, just like you would a tortilla or wrap.

Step 4: Grill the Roll-Ups

Place each roll-up seam-side down in the skillet. Let them cook for about 2 minutes per side, just until the cheese is melted and the roll-ups are golden and crispy on the outside. You may need to do this in batches, depending on how many roll-ups you’re making.

Step 5: Serve and Garnish

Once the roll-ups are crispy and the cheese is all gooey inside, remove them from the pan. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if you like, and serve hot.

How to Serve Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll-Ups

These Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll-Ups are delicious all on their own, but here are some ideas for sides and extras that will complement the dish:

With a Simple Salad

Pair these roll-ups with a fresh, crisp salad—maybe a spinach or arugula salad with a light vinaigrette. The freshness will balance out the richness of the roll-ups perfectly.

With Zucchini Fries

If you’re craving a crunchy side to go with these, try making keto-friendly zucchini fries! They’re low-carb, crispy, and the perfect complement to the cheesy roll-ups.

With Cauliflower Rice

For a heartier side, cauliflower rice is a great option. It’s low-carb, keto-friendly, and soaks up any extra cheese or sauce beautifully.

As an Appetizer

These roll-ups are also fantastic as an appetizer. Serve them alongside a dipping sauce like ranch or garlic butter for extra flavor.

Additional Tips

• Steak Choice: Thinly sliced ribeye steak is the traditional Philly cheesesteak cut, but you can also use flank steak, sirloin, or even ground beef if you prefer.
• Cheese Variations: While provolone is the classic choice for a Philly cheesesteak, you can also use mozzarella, Swiss, or even cheddar for a twist on flavor.
• Spicy Kick: For a bit of heat, add some sliced jalapeños to the veggies before sautéing them, or drizzle the finished roll-ups with a spicy buffalo sauce.
• Make It Ahead: You can prepare the roll-ups ahead of time, store them in the fridge, and then reheat them when you’re ready to eat. Just be sure to store them in an airtight container.
