Ingredients
  

For the Casserole
  • 2 pounds shaved steak seasoned with salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1 bell pepper cut into ½ inch strips (red, green, or yellow)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
For the Cheese Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 3/4 cup beef broth
  • 4 ounces cream cheese cubed
  • 16 ounces provolone cheese grated, divided

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Saucepan
  • casserole dish

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350° F. Season the steak with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the steak from the skillet. Let it cool slightly, then chop it.
  3. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper strips to the same skillet. Cook for 6 minutes, until softened. Stir in the garlic powder and season with salt and pepper to taste. Return the chopped steak to the skillet and mix everything together. Remove the skillet from the heat.
  4. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium and add the cubed cream cheese. Whisk often until the cream cheese is fully melted. Lower the heat to low and stir in 8 ounces of the grated provolone cheese until it melts.
  5. Pour the cheese sauce into the skillet with the steak mixture and stir to combine. Transfer the mixture to a casserole dish. Top with the remaining 8 ounces of provolone cheese.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and heated through.
