Philly Cheesesteak Skillet
Philly Cheesesteak Skillet – this is the best one-pan, skillet, melty, cheese, easy weeknight dinner made in under 20 minutes!
What’s the difference between a Philly cheesesteak and a regular cheesesteak?
They are the same thing!
What is the best cheese to use?
The most common cheese used on a cheesesteak is provolone. But you could also go with white American cheese!
You will love this Philly Cheesesteak skillet if you love Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches. It has melted cheese, tender veggies, and savory steak with herbs and spices! Load it on a hoagie roll and you’ve got a 20-minute dinner your whole family will go crazy over. You could also serve it in lettuce wraps or over cauliflower rice. Or maybe over a baked potato?!
From start to finish, it’s made in the same skillet. Starting with the peppers, onions, and mushrooms; then the meat and spices, then the cheese. 20 minutes + one skillet = a weeknight win.

I just made this tonight. I ate it with low carb tortillas and it was so good. The only things I did differently was omitted the mushrooms because I do not like them, and halved the basil and added some parsley. This is definitely going into the rotation. Thank you so much for the recipe.
Yay! So glad to hear you liked it! 🙂
