Directions

  1. Bake the Fries: Preheat your oven and bake the frozen French fries according to the package instructions until they are crispy and golden brown.
  2. Prepare the Steak: While the fries are baking, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak and season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until the steak is browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the sliced green bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms (if using). Sauté until the vegetables are tender and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Assemble the Fries: Once the fries are ready, arrange them on a large serving platter or individual plates. Top with the cooked steak and sautéed vegetables.
  5. Add the Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the steak and vegetables. If using cheese sauce, drizzle it over the top.
  6. Melt the Cheese: Place the assembled fries under the broiler for a few minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve: Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Enjoy your Philly Cheesesteak Fries while hot!

Kitchen Equipment Needed

  • Baking sheet
  • Large skillet
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Notes and Tips

  • Steak Selection: Ribeye is traditional for Philly cheesesteak, but you can use other cuts like sirloin or flank steak.
  • Cheese Options: Provolone is classic, but feel free to use American cheese, mozzarella, or a cheese blend.
  • Vegetable Variations: Add or omit vegetables based on your preference. Red bell peppers and jalapeños are great additions for extra flavor.

Recipe Variations

  • Spicy Cheesesteak Fries: Add sliced jalapeños or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
  • BBQ Cheesesteak Fries: Drizzle BBQ sauce over the steak and fries for a smoky, tangy twist.
  • Loaded Cheesesteak Fries: Top with additional ingredients like diced tomatoes, green onions, or a dollop of sour cream.

Storing Leftovers

If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through. Note that the fries may lose some of their crispiness upon reheating.
