Description
Juicy ground beef smashed into crispy tortillas, topped with caramelized onions, peppers, and melty provolone for the ultimate Philly Cheesesteak taco fusion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound Ground Beef (85/15 blend)
- 8 Small Flour Tortillas
- 1 large Yellow Onion, thinly sliced
- 1 Green Bell Pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Shredded Provolone Cheese
- Salt and Pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons Neutral Oil (like canola or avocado)
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ¼ cup Pickled Jalapeños (optional)
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil and let it get hot.
- In a bowl, season ground beef with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently to combine.
- Add onions and peppers to the skillet. Sauté for 8–10 minutes until caramelized. Remove and set aside.
- Place a tortilla in the skillet. Add about 2 oz of beef to the center. Smash it flat with a spatula.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes until the bottom is browned and crispy. Flip and cook the other side for 2 more minutes.
- Top with caramelized onions, peppers, and shredded cheese. Cover briefly to melt the cheese.
- Fold the taco gently, remove from heat, and serve hot with your favorite toppings.
Notes
- Use freshly shredded cheese for best melt.
- Don’t overcrowd the skillet when cooking multiple tacos.
- Warm tortillas slightly before use to prevent tearing.
