Crispy Keto Cheesesteak Roll Ups Recipe

Ingredients

For the Cheesesteak Filling

1 lb (450 g) thinly sliced beef (ribeye, sirloin, or shaved steak)
1 tbsp olive oil or butter
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
Optional: sliced mushrooms or chili flakes

For the Crispy Cheese Wrap

8–10 slices provolone or mozzarella cheese (do not use pre-shredded)

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Cheesesteak Filling

Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced beef and cook quickly until just browned. Remove beef from the pan and set aside.

In the same skillet, sauté onions and bell peppers until soft and lightly caramelized. Return beef to the pan, season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir well and cook for 1 more minute. Remove from heat.

Step 2: Prepare the Cheese Wraps

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place cheese slices on the parchment, slightly overlapping to form rectangles.

Bake for 5–7 minutes, until cheese is melted, bubbling, and lightly golden around the edges.

Step 3: Assemble the Roll Ups

Remove cheese from the oven and let cool for about 30 seconds until pliable. Spoon the cheesesteak filling along one edge of each cheese rectangle.

Carefully roll the cheese around the filling to form tight roll ups. The cheese will firm up as it cools.

Step 4: Optional Extra Crisping

For extra crunch, return the roll ups to the oven seam-side down for 2–3 minutes.

Tips for Perfect Keto Cheesesteak Roll Ups

Use parchment paper instead of foil to prevent sticking. Avoid overfilling the rolls. If cheese hardens too fast, return it briefly to the oven to soften. Always use sliced cheese for proper melting and crisping.

Variations and Customizations

Spicy Keto Cheesesteak Roll Ups

Add jalapeños, red pepper flakes, or use pepper jack cheese.

Mushroom Cheesesteak Roll Ups

Serving Suggestions
