Ingredients
- 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye steak
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 4 slices Provolone cheese, cut into strips
- 8 egg roll wrappers (ensure they are Keto-friendly, with low carbs)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or olive oil spray
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling:
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the steak is browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Saute Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed, then sauté the sliced onion and green bell pepper until they are tender and slightly caramelized, about 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Assemble the Egg Rolls:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Lay out one egg roll wrapper with a corner facing you (diamond shape). Place a strip of Provolone cheese in the center of the wrapper. Top with a spoonful of the cooked steak and sautéed vegetables.
- Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides. Roll tightly to seal the egg roll, using a bit of water to secure the top corner if needed. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
- Bake the Egg Rolls:
- Place the assembled egg rolls on the prepared baking sheet. Spray the tops lightly with cooking spray or brush with olive oil.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg rolls are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve:
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Optionally, serve with Keto-friendly dipping sauces like ranch dressing or a spicy mayo.
