Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 egg rolls
Ingredients
- 1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 cup bell peppers, diced
- 1 cup onion, diced
- 1 cup provolone cheese, shredded
- 12 egg roll wrappers
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Thinly slice the ribeye steak against the grain to ensure tenderness. Dice the bell peppers and onion into small, uniform pieces for even cooking.
- In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the diced onions and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the onions are translucent.
- Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the steak is browned and cooked through.
- Once the steak and vegetables are cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the shredded provolone cheese until melted and well combined with the meat and vegetables.
- Allow the mixture to cool for a few minutes. Meanwhile, prepare your egg roll wrappers by laying them out on a clean surface.
- To assemble the egg rolls, place about 2 tablespoons of the steak and cheese mixture in the center of each egg roll wrapper. Be careful not to overfill.
- To fold the egg rolls, take the bottom corner of the wrapper and fold it over the filling. Then, fold in the sides and roll tightly to enclose the filling. Use a little water to seal the edges if necessary.
- Once all the egg rolls are assembled, preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Place the egg rolls in a single layer in the basket, making sure they are not touching each other. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Spray the tops of the egg rolls with olive oil spray for a crispy finish. Cook in the air fryer for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Once cooked, remove the egg rolls from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Air Fryer Philly Cheesesteak Egg Rolls with your favorite dipping sauce!
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, you can prepare the steak and vegetable filling a day in advance. Just store it in the fridge until you're ready to assemble the egg rolls.
- Don’t Overfill: When filling the egg roll wrappers, stick to about 2 tablespoons of the mixture. Overfilling can lead to messy egg rolls that may burst open during cooking.
- Seal Properly: Use a little water to seal the edges of the egg rolls securely. This will help keep the filling inside and prevent any leaks while cooking.
- Air Fryer Temperature: Make sure to preheat your air fryer for optimal cooking. This helps achieve that perfect crispy texture on the outside while keeping the filling deliciously moist.
- Batch Cooking: If you have a smaller air fryer, cook the egg rolls in batches. Avoid overcrowding the basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- Dipping Sauces: Serve your egg rolls with a variety of dipping sauces like marinara, ranch, or a spicy aioli to add an extra layer of flavor.
- Experiment with Fillings: Feel free to customize your egg rolls! You can add mushrooms, jalapeños, or even switch up the cheese for a unique twist on this classic recipe.
