A savory and indulgent Cheese Steak Fried Rice combining tender ribeye steak, sautéed vegetables, scrambled eggs, and melted provolone cheese. This hearty dish offers a flavorful twist on classic fried rice, perfect for a satisfying meal that serves 4 to 6 people.

Ingredients

Meat

  • 1 lb ribeye or skirt steak, sliced thinly against the grain

Vegetables

  • 1 white onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

Seasonings

  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or to taste)

Other Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3 cups cooked and cooled rice
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded provolone cheese

Instructions

  1. Cook the Steak: Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a large skillet or stockpot over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced ribeye or skirt steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook until no longer pink, about 4 to 6 minutes. Remove the steak from the pan and set aside.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil to the same pan. Add the chopped onion and green bell pepper, cooking for about 5 minutes until slightly softened. Then, add the sliced mushrooms along with garlic powder and onion powder, stirring to combine.
  3. Scramble Eggs: Push the cooked vegetables to the edges of the pan. Pour the beaten eggs into the center of the pan. Season both the eggs and vegetables with salt and pepper. Gently stir the eggs to scramble them until they are fully cooked, about 3 minutes.
  4. Add Rice and Seasonings: Stir in the cooked and cooled rice, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes. Return the cooked steak to the skillet. Mix all ingredients together and cook for an additional 2 minutes to heat through.
  5. Melt the Cheese: Remove the skillet from the heat and immediately add the shredded provolone cheese. Stir to distribute the cheese evenly. Cover the skillet and let it sit for 2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt fully before serving.

Notes

  • Use day-old rice for best texture and to prevent clumping.
  • Adjust red pepper flakes according to your preferred spice level.
  • Thinly slicing the steak helps it cook quickly and remain tender.
  • You can substitute provolone cheese with mozzarella or cheddar if preferred.
  • This dish is best enjoyed immediately after cooking for the best flavor and texture.
