Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1-½ pounds top sirloin steak
  • 4 ounces mushrooms sliced (about 4-5)
  • 1 red pepper sliced
  • 1 green pepper sliced
  • 1 large white onion sliced
  • 1 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ cup water
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese or mozzarella cheese

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the steak and sear on both sides. Remove the steak and turn down the heat to medium.
  • Add in the mushrooms and cook until all the moisture has evaporated, about 6 minutes.
  • Add in peppers, onions, salt, pepper, garlic powder and water. Scrap up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan and let cook for 6-8 minutes until the vegetables are starting to soften.
  • Add back in the steak and cook until heated through, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Top the mixture with cheese and cover and cook until melted.
  • Serve immediately as is or with white rice or cauliflower rice.

Notes

  1. If you cannot find top sirloin, skirt steak and rib eye will also work.
  2. Pro-tip for slicing the steak: Place the steak in the freezer for 15 minutes and then slice the steak against the grain as thinly as possible.
