Philly Cheesesteak Baked Potato 🥔🥩

Ingredients (2 potatoes)

  • 2 large baking potatoes
  • 250–300 g thinly sliced steak (ribeye or sirloin)
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 bell pepper (green or yellow), thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ​Salt & black pepper

Instructions

1. Prepare the Potatoes

  • ​Wash and dry the potatoes, then prick them several times with a fork.
  • ​Rub the skin with a bit of oil and salt, then bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 45–60 minutes until the inside is soft and the skin is crispy.

2. Cook the Filling

  • ​In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter with the olive oil.
  • ​Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sautéing until they are soft and golden brown, then remove them from the pan.
  • ​In the same pan, sear the steak strips over high heat.
  • ​Season the meat with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
  • ​Once the steak is cooked through, toss the sautéed vegetables back in and mix well.

3. Assemble and Serve

  • ​Slice the baked potatoes open lengthwise and fluff the inside with a fork.
  • ​Generously stuff the potatoes with the Philly cheesesteak mixture.
  • Top Tip: Add a slice of Provolone or a handful of shredded Mozzarella on top and let it melt over the hot filling for that classic cheesy finish.
