Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll-Ups
These roll-ups deliver all the savory, cheesy, and meaty flavors of a Philly Cheesesteak without the bread.
Yield: 4 Servings (about 12-16 roll-ups)
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
For the Filling:
· 1 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
· 1 lb ribeye steak, very thinly sliced (or shaved sirloin) *
· 1 medium green bell pepper, thinly sliced
· 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
· 4 oz sliced mushrooms (optional, but classic)
· 2 cloves garlic, minced
· 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (check for no added sugar)
· Salt and black pepper to taste
For Assembly:
· 8-12 large slices of provolone cheese (about 8 oz) **
· 8 large slices of deli roast beef or thinly sliced ham (as the “wrap”) ***
· Toothpicks, for securing
For Serving (Optional):
· Sugar-free ketchup or mayonnaise
· Pickled jalapeños
Instructions
- Sauté the Vegetables: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms (if using). Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until softened and slightly caramelized. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Transfer the vegetable mixture to a bowl and set aside.
- Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, add the thinly sliced steak. Season generously with salt, pepper, and the Worcestershire sauce. Cook, breaking it up with a spatula, for 3-5 minutes until it’s just cooked through and no longer pink. Avoid overcooking.
- Combine Filling: Return the cooked vegetables to the skillet with the steak. Stir everything together until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes so it’s easier to handle.
- Assemble the Roll-Ups:
· Lay a slice of roast beef flat on a cutting board or plate.
· Place a slice of provolone cheese on top of the roast beef.
· Spoon a generous line (about 2-3 tablespoons) of the steak and pepper mixture along one edge of the cheese.
· Carefully roll it up tightly, starting from the side with the filling.
· Secure the roll with a toothpick through the seam to hold it together.
· Repeat with the remaining ingredients. - Serve and Enjoy! Arrange the roll-ups on a plate and serve immediately. They are delicious warm, at room temperature, or even cold, making them great for meal prep.
Tips for the Best Keto Roll-Ups
· Pro Tip for Slicing Steak: For easiest thin slicing, place your steak in the freezer for 20-30 minutes until it’s firm but not frozen solid. This makes it much easier to get paper-thin slices.
· The Cheese “Glue”: Using provolone cheese directly on the roast beef slice acts as a barrier, preventing the juicy filling from making the meat wrap soggy.
· Customize Your Fillings: Feel free to add other keto-friendly veggies like sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of Italian seasoning in the filling.
· Cheese Choices: While provolone is classic, you can use sliced mozzarella, white American cheese, or even a sprinkle of sharp cheddar.
· Make it a Casserole: For an even easier version, layer the roast beef slices in a baking dish, top with the steak/veg mixture, and cover with cheese slices. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes until bubbly.
