Description
A delicious and indulgent recipe featuring crispy baked russet potato fries loaded with savory ribeye steak, caramelized onions, bell peppers, and melted provolone and mozzarella cheeses, topped with fresh parsley for a flavorful twist on classic Philly cheesesteak.
Ingredients
Fries
- 4 large russet potatoes, cut into fries
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Steak and Toppings
- 1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
Cheeses and Garnish
- 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat and bake fries: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the cut fries evenly onto a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are crispy and golden brown.
- Cook the steak: While the fries bake, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté vegetables: In the same skillet, add a little more oil if necessary. Add the thinly sliced onions and bell peppers, cooking for 5-7 minutes until they become softened and caramelized.
- Add garlic and sauces: Stir in the minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the mixture is fragrant. Return the cooked steak to the skillet and toss to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Assemble topped fries: Once the fries are finished baking, remove them from the oven and spread the steak, pepper, and onion mixture evenly over the fries.
- Melt the cheese: Sprinkle shredded provolone and mozzarella cheeses on top, then return the baking sheet to the oven for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish and serve: Remove the loaded fries from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before baking to remove excess starch.
- You can substitute ribeye steak with sirloin or flank steak for a leaner option.
- Use any favorite cheese blend if provolone and mozzarella are unavailable.
- Serve with a side of ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce for added flavor.
- Leftovers can be reheated in the oven to restore crispiness.
