Ingredients

Scale

1½ pounds ground beef or thinly sliced steak
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 small onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup cream cheese, softened
½ cup heavy cream
1½ cups shredded provolone or mozzarella cheese
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

Optional garnish: chopped parsley

Instructions

Step 1:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Step 2:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add sliced peppers and onions and sauté for 4–5 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.

Step 3:

Add ground beef or sliced steak to the skillet. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking up the meat if using ground beef. Drain excess grease.

Step 4:

Stir in cream cheese, heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the mixture becomes creamy and well combined.

Step 5:

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle provolone and cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Bake for 15–20 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

Avoid overcooking the casserole once cheese is added. Bake just until melted and bubbly to keep the dish creamy.
