Important Ingredients

Ground Beef — For this dish, I used 80 percent lean ground beef, but you can use any sort you wish. Remember to trim the rendered fat from the ground beef as much as feasible.

This casserole may become soggy and unappealing if too much liquid fat is left behind. Also, while cooking, season your ground beef with a generous teaspoon of salt! The salt enhances the flavor of the entire casserole.

Cream Cheese – A small amount of cream cheese adds to the casserole’s richness. Cream cheese is a secret ingredient in this recipe, even though it isn’t conventional in a Philly cheesesteak.

Provolone Cheese — In this delectable dish, don’t skimp on the provolone cheese! This meal is elevated to the next level by a thick covering of melty provolone cheese.

I like to top my Philly cheesesteak casserole with all eight slices. Anyone who catches a glimpse of this frothy top layer of cheese immediately requests a plateful!

Chef’s Advice

• After that, place the dish in the oven for 30 seconds to 1 minute on high broil. Broiling your Philly cheesesteak dish will give it a delectable golden brown crust! Keep an eye on it while it broils because it can quickly burn.
• Insert a layer of sliced provolone cheese in the center for an even cheesier casserole. Transfer half of the ground beef mixture to a baking dish and top with six to eight slices of provolone cheese. Then top with the rest of the ground beef mixture and a final layer of provolone cheese — heavenly cheesy heaven!
• Allow the dish to cool for 5 minutes after removing it from the oven before serving. The beef and vegetables will soak up the heavy cream and cream cheese if they are left to rest for a few minutes. It will also allow the Philly cheesesteak casserole to solidify, making scooping and serving easier!
