Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet and cook over medium heat. Add onions and cook until they start to brown, roughly 7 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until they soften, roughly 5 minutes. Add steak, italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, and cook until the steak is cooked through, roughly 4 minutes. Make sure not to overcook... and stir mixture regularly throughout this step. Turn heat off and add in the Worcestershire sauce.
Remove pepper halves from the oven and add filling. Top each half with a slice of cheese and broil on high (5inches from broiler) for 3 minutes.
