-
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Make 4 sheets of aluminum foil about 30 inches long. Fold the foil in half width wise (into almost a square) so it's extra-sturdy. -
Peel and quarter the onion. Thinly slice each quarter and add to a heatproof container with water. Microwave onions until mostly tender, about 90 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on microwave's power. Carefully transfer onions into a medium bowl. -
Seed each bell pepper and then thinly slice. Roughly chop the sliced mushrooms. Transfer both bell peppers and mushrooms into the bowl with the onion. -
Thinly slice the top sirloin into 1/2-inch strips. Add sirloin into the bowl with the vegetables. Stir in balsamic vinegar, canola oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Use tongs or a spoon to mix until combined. -
Divide mixture into 4 equal portions into the center of each foil square. Top each portion with 1/4 cup cheese. -
Securely seal the top and sides of each foil packet. Place each foil packet onto a large baking sheet and add into the preheated oven. Cook until beef is cooked through, about 20 minutes. (Remove 1 packet to check that steak is fully cooked before removing them all from the oven.) -
Place each foil packet onto a plate. Carefully open each packet and serve with rolls.
Cooking Tip: Low-fat varieties of cheeses like provolone or Swiss can be substituted for the mozzarella.
Keep it Healthy: Craving steak, but want to stay healthy? Beef filet top sirloin is one of the best picks on account of its leanness.
Tip: Onions require a longer cooking time than the other ingredients which is why they get a needed zap in the microwave before being add to the foil packet.
