Ingredients

2 pounds ribeye skirt, or flat-iron steak, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce optional
2 tablespoons olive oil divided
8 ounces fresh mushrooms sliced
1 red bell pepper seeded and sliced intro strips
1 green bell pepper seeded and sliced into strips
1 white onion sliced into strips
3 cloves garlic minced
2 cups shredded mozzarella
Fresh parsley or cilantro chopped for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Season the sliced steak with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Toss to coat the meat.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add part of the olive oil and the mushrooms.
Cook, stirring occasionally until the mushrooms are golden brown.
Remove the veggies to a plate and add the remaining olive oil.
Add in the seasoned steak and cook for 3-4 minutes to brown and cook the meat until just slightly pink inside. Don't overcook the meat or it will be tough.
Add vegetables back into the skillet and add the garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
Turn off the heat and cover with the shredded mozzarella cheese.
Cover the skillet or place under the broiler to melt the cheese. Garnish and serve warm!

Notes

Freeze the steak for 1 hour before slicing to make it easier to cut.
Use a sharp knife to make slicing easier.
My local market sells shaved steak so don't be afraid to ask in your store.
Substitute ground beef for a more budget friendly dish.
I like a cast iron skillet because it sears the meat well and holds the heat.
If you want to make it spicy, add some red pepper flakes, jalapeno peppers, or hot sauce.
Make this even easier and more affordable with ground beef, ground chicken, or ground turkey.
