Ingredients
Scale
Steak and Vegetables
- 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye steak (or sirloin)
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper (red or green), thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (for cooking)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Roll-Ups
- 4 low-carb tortillas (almond flour or coconut flour-based)
- 2 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup shredded provolone cheese (or mozzarella)
- 1 tablespoon butter (for toasting, optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Veggies and Steak: Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for 4-5 minutes, until they soften and begin to caramelize. Remove the veggies from the skillet and set them aside.
- Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak, cooking for about 2-3 minutes, or until it’s browned and cooked through. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Season the Steak: Add the Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to the steak and stir well to coat. Adjust seasoning as desired for extra flavor.
- Combine Steak and Veggies: Once the steak is fully cooked, stir in the caramelized onions and bell peppers, mixing everything together. Reduce the heat to low and keep the mixture warm.
- Prepare the Tortillas: Lay out your low-carb tortillas on a clean surface. Spread a thin layer of softened cream cheese on each tortilla to add richness and creaminess.
- Add Cheese and Filling: Sprinkle 1/4 cup of shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese evenly over each tortilla. Spoon an equal portion of the steak, onion, and pepper mixture onto each tortilla, spreading it out evenly.
- Roll Up the Tortillas: Carefully roll each tortilla up tightly, ensuring all the filling stays inside.
- Toast the Roll-Ups: Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, place the rolled-up tortillas seam side down in the skillet. Toast them for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Work in batches if needed.
- Serve: Remove the roll-ups from the skillet and let them rest for a minute before slicing them into 2-inch pieces. Serve warm with a keto-friendly dipping sauce like creamy garlic dip or low-carb marinara sauce if desired.
Notes
- Use thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin steak for best tenderness and flavor.
- Low-carb tortillas can be almond flour or coconut flour based to keep it keto-friendly.
- To add extra flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or crushed red pepper to the steak mixture.
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened before spreading for even coverage.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute cream cheese and shredded cheese with vegan alternatives.
- These roll-ups can be made ahead and refrigerated; reheat in a skillet or air fryer for best texture.
