Ingredients:
- 1 lb. ribeye steak or steak of your choice, thinly sliced
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 1 bell pepper, finely chopped (optional, depending on your preference)
- 2 cups provolone cheese (or American cheese, if preferred), shredded
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions:
1.
Prepare the Steak:
- Thinly slice the ribeye steak into small strips or bite-sized pieces. You can freeze the steak for about 30 minutes to make slicing easier.
- Season the steak with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
2.
Cook the Steak:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced steak and cook until browned and fully cooked through (about 4-5 minutes). Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside.
3.
Sauté the Veggies:
- In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary, and sauté the onions (and bell pepper if using) until they become soft and slightly caramelized (about 5-7 minutes).
- Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
4.
Combine Steak and Veggies:
- Add the cooked steak back into the skillet with the onions and bell peppers. Pour in the soy sauce and cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.
5.
Assemble the Egg Rolls:
- Place an egg roll wrapper on a clean, flat surface. Spoon a portion of the steak and veggie mixture onto the center of the wrapper, then top with some shredded cheese.
- Carefully fold in the sides of the wrapper, then roll it up tightly, sealing the edge with a little water.
6.
Fry the Egg Rolls:
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer over medium heat (about 350°F).
- Carefully place the egg rolls into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the egg rolls and drain on paper towels.
7.
Serve:
- Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch, ketchup, or a cheese dipping sauce.
Tips:
- Make Ahead: You can prepare and assemble the egg rolls in advance, storing them in the refrigerator for a few hours before frying. This can be a time-saver when you’re hosting.
- Baking Option: If you want a lighter version, you can bake these egg rolls instead. Brush them with a little oil and bake at 400°F for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Cheese Variations: If you prefer a different flavor, you can experiment with other cheeses like mozzarella or cheddar.
