Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 lb thinly sliced sirloin steak
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 cup thinly sliced green bell pepper
  • 1 cup sliced cremini mushrooms optional
  • 2 tsp minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1.5 cup shredded provolone cheese
  • 0.75 tsp fine sea salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 12 count 6-inch flour tortillas warm to soften
  • 1 tbsp oil for brushing

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Heat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment and set aside.
  • Warm 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Sauté onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms with a pinch of salt until tender, 5–6 minutes. Stir in garlic for 30 seconds.
  • Push veggies to the sides. Add steak to the center; season with remaining salt, pepper, and Worcestershire. Cook, chopping into small bits, until just browned, 3–4 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to low. Stir in cream cheese until melted, then remove from heat and fold in provolone. Let the mixture cool 5 minutes.
  • Warm tortillas in the microwave wrapped in a damp towel until pliable, 30–45 seconds.
  • Spoon about 3 tbsp filling along the lower third of each tortilla. Roll tightly, placing seam-side down on the pan.
  • Brush taquitos lightly with the remaining oil. Bake 12–15 minutes, turning once, until crisp and golden.

Notes

Serve with warm queso, chipotle mayo, or a drizzle of hot sauce. For a spicy twist, add minced jalapeño to the filling. To reheat, bake at 375°F for 6–8 minutes to restore crispness.
