Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400℉. Cut the tops off the green peppers and place them in the oven on a baking sheet to cook for about 10 minutes. Cut around the stem of the green pepper tops (discard those) and chop up the extra green pepper that’s left.
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil, followed by the onions, green peppers, and garlic, cook for about 2 minutes.
- Add shaved steak to the pan, then generously salt and pepper the meat. Brown the meat until fully cooked, chopping with your spatula as you go. Add one slice of cheese and mix until melted. Remove from heat and toss with the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard.
- Take the green peppers out of the oven when they’re soft but not too soft to stuff. There should be some juice in the bottom of the shells – don’t dump it, as it adds flavor!
- Spoon the steak mixture into the green pepper shells, then top each with a slice of cheese. Place peppers back in the oven to broil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted to your liking, then serve hot.
- Optional garnishes: sliced avocado, sour cream, chopped scallions, and jalapenos.
