Ingredients
-
2 large bell peppers, halved lengthwise, seeds removed
-
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 large onion, halved and sliced
-
1 (8 ounce) package mushrooms, thinly sliced

Description
-
Preheat oven to 375°F.
-
Place pepper halves on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until tender but still holding their shape, about 30 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until starting to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 8 ounces mushrooms and cook, stirring, until they're softened and release their juices, about 5 minutes more. Add 12 ounces steak, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, ½ teaspoon pepper and ¼ teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until the steak is just cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes more. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon Worcestershire.
-
Preheat broiler to high. Divide the filling between the pepper halves and top each with a slice of cheese. Broil 5 inches from the heat until the cheese is melted and lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
