The Philly Cheesesteak Baked Potato is a fusion of two ultimate comfort foods. You get the tender steak, gooey melted cheese, and sautéed veggies all packed into a hearty baked potato, offering a flavorful and satisfying meal perfect for any occasion.

INGREDIENTS
  • Baking potatoes: 4 large, pierced with a fork for baking
  • Ribeye or sirloin steak: 1 lb thinly sliced, adds rich flavor
  • Green bell pepper: 1, sliced, adds sweetness and texture
  • Onion: 1, sliced, for savory flavor
  • Olive oil: 1 tbsp, used for sautéing
  • Provolone cheese: 8 slices, for that classic cheesesteak flavor
  • Butter: 1 tbsp, adds richness to the potatoes
  • Salt and pepper: to taste, for seasoning the steak and vegetables
  • Fresh parsley: for garnish, adds a fresh touch
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1:
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2:
Pierce the potatoes with a fork and bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.
Step 3:
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté bell pepper and onion until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 4:
In the same skillet, cook the steak for 3-5 minutes until browned. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 5:
Slice each baked potato and scoop out some of the flesh to create space for the filling.
Step 6:
Place a slice of provolone cheese inside each potato. Add the steak, peppers, and onions, then top with another slice of provolone.
Step 7:
Return the potatoes to the oven for 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 8:
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
Serving and Storage Tips
  • Serve immediately for the best taste, with the cheese still gooey and melted.
  • If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven or microwave.
Helpful Notes
  • For a richer flavor, brush the insides of the baked potatoes with garlic butter before adding the fillings.
  • Feel free to switch up the cheese—cheddar or mozzarella also work well in this dish.

Tips from Well-Known Chefs

  • Chef Michael Symon recommends using thinly sliced ribeye for its tender texture and rich flavor, but sirloin is a great budget-friendly alternative.
