Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 large flour tortillas (about 12 inches in diameter)
  • 8 slices provolone cheese (thinly sliced)
  • 12 ounces deli roast beef (freshly sliced, medium-thin)
  • 1 cup French fried onions (store-bought or homemade)

For Baking & Assembly

  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Au Jus Sauce

  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) beef consommé
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven and Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  2. Assemble Roll Ups: Warm tortillas in the microwave for 10 seconds to prevent cracking. Lay one tortilla flat, then place 2 slices of provolone cheese over half the tortilla. Top with about 3 ounces of medium-thin roast beef and a generous handful of French fried onions. Lightly brush the far edge of the tortilla with olive oil to help seal the roll.
  3. Roll and Seal: Starting from the filled end, roll the tortilla tightly around the filling, pressing the oiled edge to seal it securely. Place the roll seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  4. Oil the Roll Ups: Brush the tops and sides of each roll with the remaining olive oil. This step is vital for achieving that crispy, golden crust during baking.
  5. Bake: Bake the roll ups for 8 to 10 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through to ensure even browning. Look for golden-brown tortillas with cheese just beginning to bubble where it meets the edges.
  6. Prepare Au Jus Sauce: While the roll ups bake, combine the beef consommé, water, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, whisking to blend the ingredients thoroughly, and bring to a gentle simmer. Let simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until hot and fragrant.
  7. Rest and Slice: Remove the roll ups from the oven and let them rest for 2 minutes on the baking sheet to allow the cheese to set, which helps prevent the filling from oozing out. Using a sharp serrated knife, slice each roll into halves or thirds, according to preference.
  8. Serve: Arrange the sliced roll ups on a platter and serve immediately with the warm au jus dipping sauce for an irresistible meal or appetizer experience.

Notes

  • Warming tortillas briefly before assembly helps prevent cracking and makes rolling easier.
  • Let the roll ups rest before slicing to keep the cheese and fillings intact.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container refrigerated for up to 3 days; keep au jus sauce separate to avoid soggy tortillas.
  • Reheat leftovers in a 375°F oven for 5 to 7 minutes to maintain crispiness; reheat au jus on stovetop or microwave.
  • Provolone cheese can be substituted with mozzarella or Swiss cheese based on preference.
  • Roll ups can be frozen individually wrapped and stored up to 2 months; thaw overnight in refrigerator before reheating.
  • Adding a thin layer of horseradish sauce inside before rolling adds a tasty flavor boost.
