Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to four hundred twenty five degrees Fahrenheit to ensure the fries turn out crisp and golden by the end
Sear the Steak:
Heat an oven safe skillet over medium high Add the olive oil then gently lay in the thin sliced steak Sprinkle on garlic salt and black pepper Stir to make sure every strip gets coated Cook until the steak browns but stop before it dries out Transfer steak to a plate and set aside
Sauté the Vegetables:
Keep one tablespoon of the steak juices in the skillet for extra flavor Toss in sliced green bell pepper and onions Stir well over medium heat The bell pepper should stay a little bit crisp while the onion softens and sweetens This is key for great texture When they are just tender lift them out and set aside
Layer the Fries and Toppings:
Off the heat lay half the waffle fries evenly in the skillet Cover with four cheese slices Place cooked steak and sautéed vegetables on top Repeat so you have layers ending with the cheese up top This layering anchors the toppings and ensures melty cheese throughout
Bake and Melt:
Move the loaded skillet to your hot oven Let it bake for eight to ten minutes Watch for the cheese to bubble and melt Do not walk away as this just hits perfection quickly The top should look golden with gooey edges
Serve and Enjoy:
Carefully take the skillet out Let it cool for a moment so the cheese sets slightly Serve straight from the pan for maximum drama or heap onto plates Dig in while everything is hot and cheesy
