When I first put together these Crispy Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Wraps, I knew I had something special on my hands. The smell of sizzling steak mingled with caramelized onions and melted provolone is enough to make anyone’s mouth water. I can still remember that first bite: the crunch of the toasted wrap giving way to a creamy, cheesy, savory filling that reminded me of a classic cheesesteak but with an irresistible handheld twist.

Making these wraps has become a go-to weeknight ritual in my kitchen. They’re quick to throw together, satisfying, and the kind of dish everyone at the table gets excited about. I’ve even brought them to a couple of potlucks, and they disappeared faster than anything else on the table. That golden crispy crust is pure magic!

What I love most is how adaptable they are. Whether I’m craving the traditional Philly flavors or want to spice things up with pepper jack or even mushrooms, it’s easy to make these wraps fit the mood. If you’re also a fan of cheesy beefy goodness like my Cheesesteak Tortellini in Rich Provolone Sauce or creamy pastas like Creamy Beef and Shells, you’ll definitely love this.

Ingredients

Steak: The heart of this recipe, juicy and flavorful steak strips bring that classic Philly cheesesteak essence.

Bell Peppers: Their sweetness and slight crunch balance the richness of the beef and cheese.

Onions: Caramelized onions add depth and a touch of sweetness to every bite.

Provolone Cheese: Creamy, melty, and mild, it ties all the flavors together perfectly.

Tortillas: These hold everything in and turn golden and crisp on the outside when grilled.

Butter or Oil: Essential for sautéing the vegetables and crisping up the tortillas to perfection.

How to Make Crispy Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Wraps

Step 1: Cook the Steak

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear your seasoned steak strips until just cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables

In the same skillet, add a little butter or oil, then toss in sliced onions and bell peppers. Cook until soft and caramelized, about 7–8 minutes.

Step 3: Assemble the Wraps

Lay out the tortillas. On each one, layer provolone cheese, steak, and the sautéed peppers and onions.

Step 4: Grill the Wraps

Fold the tortillas tightly into wraps. Heat a clean skillet over medium heat and grill each wrap seam-side down until golden and crispy, about 2–3 minutes per side.

Step 5: Serve

Slice the wraps in half and serve warm while the cheese is still gooey inside.

Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions

You can make these Crispy Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Wraps your own by swapping in chicken or even thinly sliced roast beef if you prefer a leaner option. For cheese, provolone is classic, but mozzarella, cheddar, or even a spicy pepper jack work beautifully. Want extra veggies? Mushrooms, spinach, or jalapeños add an exciting twist. You can also use whole wheat or low-carb tortillas if that’s more your style.

Serving and Pairing Suggestions

These wraps pair wonderfully with a side of crispy fries, sweet potato wedges, or even a fresh green salad for balance. I like serving them with a creamy dipping sauce like ranch or chipotle mayo for an added flavor boost. They’re great for lunch with a cold iced tea or dinner alongside a comforting bowl of tomato soup.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Wrap any leftovers tightly in foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes per side to restore the crispiness, or bake them in a 350°F oven until heated through. Microwaving works too but may soften the tortilla.
