Had these at a restaurant last week and have reversed engineered them.
Serves 4
You will need:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound thinly sliced deli beef cut into stips
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
4 tablespoons butter, divided
2 green bell peppers, seeds and ribs removed, diced
1 medium yellow onion, diced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/4 cup milk or cream
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
4 cups shredded medium cheddar cheese
2 ounces cream cheese
tortilla chips
1.Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add steak and salt and pepper. Cook until steak is cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
2.In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Once butter has melted, add bell peppers, onions and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until onions start to brown 5 7 minutes. Return the steak to the pan. Reduce heat to low to keep mixture warm while you prepare the cheese sauce.
3.Melt remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Cook 1 minute. Whisk in 1 cup of milk. Reduce heat. Bring milk to a simmer but do not boil. Stir in cheeses and seasoning salt. Cook until melted. If cheese sauce is too thick for your liking, add the remaining milk.
4.Place a couple large handfuls of tortilla chips on 4 plates. Spoon cheese sauce and steak and pepper mixture over the top. Serve immediately.
Hi, illiac — Is there any problem with substituting Velveeta or equivalent for the shredded cheddar?
