Make this hearty Philly Cheese Steak Soup in one pot for a comforting, quick weeknight dinner. It captures all the classic sandwich flavors with tender beef, peppers, onions, and melted provolone cheese in a rich, creamy broth.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound sirloin steak or roast beef, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 1 green bell pepper, diced
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced (optional)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded provolone cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, cubed
  • 4 slices crusty bread, for serving (optional)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese (for toast topping)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the sliced steak and cook until browned. Remove the steak from the pot and set it aside.
  2. Add the diced onion and bell pepper to the pot. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until softened. Add mushrooms, if using, and cook for another 3 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Return the cooked steak to the pot. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream. Gradually add the shredded provolone cheese and cubed cream cheese, stirring constantly until both cheeses are fully melted and the soup is smooth and creamy. Do not let the soup boil after adding the cheese.
  7. While the soup finishes, toast the bread slices. Top the toast with cheddar or mozzarella cheese and place under the broiler until melted and bubbly.
  8. Ladle the hot Philly Cheese Steak Soup into bowls. Serve immediately with the cheesy toast on the side.

Notes

  • For the best texture, slice your steak thinly against the grain before cooking.
  • If you prefer a lower-carb option, skip the cheesy toast topping.
  • You can substitute the sirloin steak with deli roast beef for an even quicker preparation.
