How to Make Keto Philly Cheesesteak Roll Ups
1. Cook the Steak
Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced beef and cook for 3–4 minutes until just browned. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Remove steak from the skillet and set aside.
👉 Tip: Don’t overcook the beef—it will finish cooking in the roll ups.
2. Sauté the Vegetables
In the same skillet, add peppers and onions. Cook for 5–6 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized. Stir in Worcestershire sauce if using.
3. Assemble the Roll Ups
Lay provolone slices flat on a clean surface. Spoon steak and vegetables evenly onto each slice. Roll tightly from one end to the other.
4. Melt & Finish
Place roll ups seam-side down in the skillet or on a baking sheet. Cook over medium heat or bake at 375°F (190°C) for 8–10 minutes, until cheese is melted and rolls hold together.
5. Serve
Remove from heat and serve hot.
