Philly Cheesesteak Nachos

INGREDIENTS

1 large or 2 small bags corn tortilla chips (about 8 cups)

Steak:

• 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 (1-pound) sirloin steak, thinly sliced
• salt & pepper

Peppers + Onions:

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 medium bell peppers, seeded and sliced into rings
• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
• salt & pepper

Provolone Cheese Sauce:

• 2 tablespoons flour
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cups whole milk
• 1 1/2 cups grated provolone cheese
• salt & pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190C) and line a baking sheet with parchment or foil or use a greased cast iron skillet as pictured. (The recipe makes enough for about 2 full 12-inch skillets full.)

Peppers + Onions:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat and add the peppers, onions, then salt and pepper to taste. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until they begin to soften and onions are almost translucent. Remove pan from heat and scrape the mixture into a separate bowl or dish.

Steak:

• Add another 1/2 tablespoon of oil to the same pan and place it back on the heat. Add your steak to the pan and sprinkle to taste with salt and pepper. Cook just until strips are barely medium rare (as they will finish cooking in the oven) and again, remove pan from heat. Use a slotted spoon to lift the steak strips out of pan into a seperate bowl, leaving the drippings.

Provolone Cheese Sauce:

• Now add the butter and flour to the pan and whisk over low heat until completely smooth and beginning to thicken. Slowly pour in milk while still whisking and continue stirring until the mixture thickens again. Add cheese, salt, and pepper and stir until evenly melted. Remove pan from heat.

Nachos!:

• Now alternate layering your different ingredients in either your skillet(s) or on prepared pan, starting with a layer of the chips, then the pepper/onion mixture, then the steak, then some cheese sauce, and repeat until all the ingredients are added. (Again, if you're doing this in a cast iron skillet as pictured you will only need half of the recipe per 12-inch skillet. The rest can be done an a second skillet or saved for later.)
• Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until the edges of chips and top of cheese starts to brown. Remove from oven and cool for about 5 minutes, then serve hot!
