Casserole Base
- 2 pounds ground beef
- 1 large sweet onion, sliced
- 1 large green bell pepper, sliced
- 0.87 ounce brown gravy mix
- 1 cup water
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
Biscuit Topping
- 2 cups Bisquick mix
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
Topping
- 11 slices provolone cheese
- Prepare the Ground Beef Mixture: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef with half of the black pepper (¼ teaspoon) until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat.
- Sauté Vegetables: Add the sliced sweet onion and green bell pepper to the skillet with the cooked beef and continue cooking until the vegetables are softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add Gravy Mixture: Stir in the brown gravy mix and 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer and cook for a few minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare Biscuit Topping: In a mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick mix, milk, egg, and the remaining ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Stir until just combined to make the biscuit dough.
- Assemble Casserole: Transfer the beef and vegetable mixture to a casserole dish, spreading it evenly. Layer the provolone cheese slices over the meat mixture evenly.
- Add Biscuit Topping: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the top of the cheese layer, covering as much surface as possible.
- Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving to allow it to set. Enjoy your comforting and flavorful Philly Cheesesteak Casserole!
Notes
- You can substitute ground beef with ground turkey for a leaner option.
- If you prefer a spicier casserole, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or hot sauce.
- Use fresh provolone slices for best melting and flavor.
- Serve with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
