Dairy, Gluten (depending on the bread used in the original Philly Cheesesteak)
Ingredients
4 large russet potatoes, washed and sliced into 1/2
inch thick strips
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 pound thinly sliced beef for cheesesteaks
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
4 slices American cheese
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C).
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and cook the potato strips for 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
On a parchment lined baking sheet, toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook beef until browned. Add onions and bell peppers, cooking until tender. Season with salt and pepper.
Top each batch of fries with a layer of the cooked meat mixture, followed by a slice of American cheese. Return to the oven for 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
In a small bowl, mix together melted butter, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Drizzle over the cheesy fries.
Chef’s Insight
Use a high heat-resistant spatula to lift and separate the fries while baking for even browning.
Notes
Serve with your favorite dipping sauce for an added twist.
