Crockpot Philly Cheese Peppers
Here is my version of the classic Philly without the bread and a lot more nutrients. For those of you who think that wheat is a healthy whole grain...listen to this.
Summertime is a great time to break out your slow cooker. It saves time and you don't have to heat up your whole house on those warm summer days! Thank you all for your support!
One staple that every cook should have in their fridge is Fish Sauce. It is a special ingredient that takes good food to amazing food. Fish Sauce, mushrooms and aged cheeses have something called ?UMAMI.? Umami is a pleasant savory taste produced by glutamate and ribonucleotides, chemicals which occur naturally in many foods. Umami is subtle and not generally identified by people when they encounter it, but blends well with other tastes to intensify and enhance flavors; it plays an important role in making food taste delicious. Red Boat brand is traditionally fermented, not with wheat like most others. This bottle will last you a LONG time - you only use a few drops per dish, it's strong stuff!
"HEALTHIFIED" PEPPERS
2 TBS coconut oil or butter
1 pound thinly sliced grass fed sirloin steak strips
8 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms
6 green bell peppers
1 medium onion, sliced
6 slices provolone cheese
1(14 ounce) can beef broth
1/2 tsp Celtic sea salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp fish sauce (optional: for "umami")
1/8 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 cup prepared horseradish (optional)
1/2 cup brown mustard (optional)
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the beef, and cook until browned. Add the mushrooms and onion; cook and stir until starting to become tender, about 5 minutes. In a slow cooker, combine the beef broth, salt, pepper, fish sauce, and red pepper flakes. Transfer the beef and vegetables to the slow cooker, and stir to blend. Cover, and cook on High for 3 to 4 hours, until beef is extremely tender.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Drain the liquid from the slow cooker, and save for dipping. Cut the top of the Green Peppers off, to shape like a bowl. Mix together the horseradish and mustard; spread onto the inside of the pepper. Bake the pepper for 15 minutes or until slightly soft. Remove from oven. Place slices of provolone cheese on insides of the peppers, then fill with the beef and vegetables. Place back in the oven until cheese is melted and serve.
