Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 - 1 ½ lb. thinly sliced beef sirloin chopped into small pieces
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- ground black pepper to taste
- 1 green pepper finely chopped
- 1 medium onion finely chopped

- 12 - 16 oz. Provolone cheese chopped into small cubes
- 16 fajita-sized flour tortillas warmed
- cooking spray or olive oil
- salt optional
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil and beef. Cook for 3 minutes. Add the green pepper, onion, Worcestershire sauce, and pepper to the pan. Cook and stir for 3-4 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the beef mixture, cream cheese, and Provolone cheese until thoroughly combined.
- Spoon 2-3 tbsp. of the beef mixture onto each tortilla. Roll the tortilla around the filling as tight as you can. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. Make sure the taquitos are not touching.
- Spray the tops of the taquitos lightly with cooking spray or brush lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the taquitos are crisp and golden brown.
Notes
- Philly cheesesteak taquitos can be frozen for up to 3 months. To freeze, place the taquitos in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer the taquitos to a sealable plastic bag or airtight container and store them in the freezer. To reheat, bake the frozen taquitos in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10-15 minutes or until they are hot and crispy.
- There are many variations of Philly cheesesteak taquitos that you can try. Some ideas include using different types of cheese (such as Cheddar or American) and adding additional toppings like mushrooms or hot sauce. You can also try using different types of meat, such as chicken or pork, in place of steak.
