What You Need To Make This Crispy Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls Recipe?

Steak: Opt for top sirloin or flank steak. For the best texture. Slice it thinly across the grain. To ensure each bite is tender.

Cheese: The mix of provolone and sharp cheddar. Offers a creamy, tangy taste. That complements the steak perfectly.

Egg Roll Wrappers: Keep these wrappers moist. By covering them with a damp towel while you work. Which helps prevent them. From drying out and tearing.

Marinade: A rich blend of Italian dressing, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, and spices. Gives the steak a flavorful boost. Making each egg roll deliciously savory.

Vegetables: Onions, peppers, and jalapeños add crunch and sweetness. Balancing the flavors. Mushrooms are optional but recommended. or an extra layer of taste.

Steps To Make Crispy Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls:

Step 1: Begin by whisking together. The Italian dressing, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. In a bowl. Add your thinly sliced steak. To this zesty marinade. And let it soak up the flavors. For at least 30 minutes. Or overnight in the fridge. For enhanced taste. When you’re ready to cook. Heat a dash of oil in a skillet. And sear the steak. Until just pink. Remember to drain any excess liquid. For the perfect texture.

Step 2: If you’re using mushrooms. Give them a quick sauté. In the same skillet until golden. Then, toss the onions, green peppers, and jalapenos in, cooking. Until they’re tender. And aromatic.

Step 3: Mix the cooked steak and vegetables briefly. In a food processor for a coarse blend. Or chop them by hand. If you prefer a more rustic texture. Take an egg roll wrapper. Place a hearty spoon of cheese in the middle. Followed by the steak mixture. And roll it up tightly. Sealing it with the egg wash.

Step 4: For frying. Heat your oil and cook the egg rolls. Until golden brown. Alternatively, for baking. Arrange them on a rack. And bake until crispy. Serve hot with a dipping sauce like queso blanco. For the ultimate indulgence.

Tip:

For the crispiest texture. And the best flavor distribution in your Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls. Make sure to drain the cooked steak. And vegetables thoroughly. Before mixing them. Excess moisture.
