Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/2 cup low sodium beef broth
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 small sweet onion diced
- 1 small green bell pepper ,
- 4 ounces mushrooms chopped
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons taco seasoning (see note below)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 & 1/2 cups shredded sharp white cheddar or monterey jack cheese
- 6 hamburger buns
Instructions
- Preheat broiler.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and broth. Set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high. Add the onion, peppers and mushrooms; sauté 3 minutes until tender. Add in the beef and continue to cook, breaking it up and browning until no pink remains, for another 3 minutes. Drain off fat.
- Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in the ketchup, Worcestershire, taco seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Give the broth and cornstarch a quick stir and add it to the skillet; simmer for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens slightly.
- Scoop some mixture onto buns, top with 1/4 cup cheese, and stick under the broiler until melted-keep a close eye, so nothing burns! (Alternatively, you can simply add the cheese in with the meat mixture and stir until combined and melted.)
- Serve warm with chips and enjoy!

Notes
Taco seasoning, really? I know this is not an ingredient in Philly cheesesteaks and it might sound odd. But it's really just a seasoning blend that adds great flavor to this recipe. It works, trust me! (Read all the positive reviews below.)
Use a different protein or broth. If necessary, you can swap in ground turkey or ground chicken for the ground beef, and chicken or veggie broth for the beef broth.It will have a different flavor of course, but still good.
Add some heat. If you want the mixture to have some heat, add in some chopped jalapeños or red pepper flakes.
