- 1 ½ tsp (6g) - Onion Powder
- 1 ½ tsp (6g) - Garlic Powder
- 1 ½ tsp (6g) - Smoked Paprika
- ¼ tsp (0.2g) - Chilli Powder
- 1 ½ Tbsp (30ml) - Worcestershire Sauce

Vegetables & Filling
- Spray Oil
- 1 - Brown (Yellow) Onion, Diced
- 2 - Small Bell Peppers (Capsicum), Diced
- 200g (0.7oz) - g Low Fat Mozzarella Cheese
- 5 - Tortillas of Choice
- Sriracha Sauce To Serve
- Salt & Ground White Pepper To Taste
Instructions
- Place the steak in the freezer for 20-30 minutes to firm up and thinly slice. Place the sliced steak and dry seasoning in a bowl and mix to combine.
- In a pan over high heat, add a light coat of spray oil and add in the steak. Sear for 2-3 minutes or until golden. Remove and repeat the remaining batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and stewing the meat.
- In the same pan over medium-high heat, add more spray oil and the onion, bell pepper (capsicum), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Sauté for 5-6 minutes, mixing regularly.
- Add the seared steak, any resting juices, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix to combine and adjust with salt and pepper. Add half of the mozzarella cheese and mix until melted. Remove from heat.
- Slightly warm the tortillas to make them easier to fold (optional). Add the remaining low-fat mozzarella cheese to each tortilla—20g (0.7oz) each. Top with ⅕ of the cheesesteak mix and drizzle over sriracha mayonnaise or any sauce of choice. Wrap and fold tightly.
- Toast in a dry pan over medium heat or alternatively place them onto a baking tray and lightly spray with oil. Bake in the oven at 200℃ - 390℉ for 8-10 minutes or until golden and crispy. If you wish to use an air fryer, place the lightly spray-oiled wraps in the basket and air fry at 200℃ - 390℉ for 5-6 minutes or until golden and crispy. You’ll need to do this in batches. Dig in.
