Ingredients
Steak and Seasoning
- 1 Pound sirloin steak (thinly sliced)
- 1 Teaspoon salt
- 1 Teaspoon oregano (dried)
- 1 Teaspoon basil (dried)
- ½ Teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons olive oil (divided)
Vegetables
- 1 Cup sweet onion (sliced)
- 2 Cups green bell peppers (sliced)
Cheese
- 4 slices Provolone cheese
Other
- 4 pieces aluminum foil (about 12 inches wide each)
Instructions
- Preheat the BBQ: Preheat your grill or BBQ to medium/high heat, approximately 425°F. If cooking over an open fire, make sure the fire is well established and hot enough for grilling.
- Prepare foil pieces: Cut four pieces of aluminum foil, each about 12 inches wide, and set them aside on a clean surface for assembling the packets.
- Season the steak: In a mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced sirloin steak with salt, dried oregano, dried basil, and ground black pepper. Toss thoroughly to evenly coat all the meat with the seasonings.
- Assemble foil packets: On each piece of foil, drizzle ½ teaspoon of olive oil. Then add a quarter of the seasoned steak mixture, followed by a quarter of the sliced onions and a quarter of the sliced green bell peppers.
- Seal the packets: Fold and crimp the edges of the foil tightly to create sealed packets that will hold the juices and steam during cooking.
- Grill the foil packets: Place the foil packets on the preheated grill. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the steak reaches your preferred level of doneness and the vegetables are tender.
- Add cheese and finish cooking: Carefully open each foil packet and place a slice of provolone cheese on top of the hot steak and vegetables. Close the foil loosely or cover with a lid to allow the cheese to melt for 1 to 2 minutes on the grill.
- Serve: Once the cheese has melted, carefully remove the foil packets from the grill and serve hot directly from the foil or transfer to plates.
Notes
- You can substitute the sirloin steak with ribeye or flank steak if preferred for different flavor and tenderness.
- Adjust cooking time based on your desired steak doneness; thinner slices cook quickly.
- For a spicier kick, add sliced jalapeños or crushed red pepper flakes to the foil packets.
- If you don’t have a grill, you can cook these foil packets in a preheated oven at 425°F for about 10-12 minutes.
- Make sure to handle foil packets carefully when opening as steam will be very hot.
