Ingredients for Your Culinary Adventure:
- 2 tbsp. vegetable oil (divided)
- 1 large onion (thinly sliced)
- 2 large bell peppers (thinly sliced)
- 1 tsp. dried oregano
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 lb. skirt steak (thinly sliced)
- 1 c. shredded provolone
- 8 large butterhead lettuce leaves
- 1 tbsp. freshly chopped parsley
Easy Steps to Flavorful Bliss:
Step 1: Sizzle the Veggie Symphony In a generous skillet over medium heat, warm up 1 tablespoon of oil. Toss in the thinly sliced onion and bell peppers, generously seasoned with oregano, salt, and pepper. Stir with excitement until the veggies reach a tender perfection, approximately 10 minutes. Once done, set aside this vibrant mix, and give the skillet a little breather.
Step 2: Steak Showtime Add the thinly sliced skirt steak to the now vacant skillet in a single, sizzling layer. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and let it dance for about 2 minutes until a delightful sear forms on one side. Flip the steak for an encore, cooking to your preferred level of perfection—about 2 more minutes for medium.
Step 3: The Grande Finale Reintroduce the onion-pepper symphony to the skillet and let the flavors intertwine with the steak. Sprinkle the shredded provolone generously over the mix, cover with a snug lid, and let the cheese melt into perfection—just about 1 minute will do. Remove from heat; your masterpiece is almost ready.
Step 4: Presentation Perfection Lay out the large butterhead lettuce leaves on a serving platter, creating a canvas for your culinary creation. Scoop the tantalizing steak and cheesy goodness onto each leaf. To finish, sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of freshness. Serve warm and relish in the applause.
