Here’s a delicious recipe for a classic Philly cheesesteak sandwich!
Philly Cheesesteak Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced (you can also use flank steak)
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 bell pepper (green or red), sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 4 slices provolone cheese (or Cheez Whiz for a classic touch)
- 4 hoagie rolls or Italian sandwich rolls
- Optional: hot sauce or sautéed mushrooms
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak:
- If your steak is not pre-sliced, partially freeze it for about 30 minutes for easier slicing. Slice the steak as thinly as possible against the grain.
- Sauté the Vegetables:
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and bell pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until softened. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Cook the Steak:
- In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced steak. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 3-5 minutes until browned and cooked through.
- Combine and Melt:
- Return the sautéed onions and peppers to the skillet with the steak. Mix well and then layer the cheese slices on top. Cover the skillet for a minute to allow the cheese to melt.
- Assemble the Sandwiches:
- Toast the hoagie rolls if desired. Divide the steak mixture among the rolls, ensuring each gets a good amount of the melted cheese.
- Serve:
- Serve hot, with optional toppings like hot sauce or sautéed mushrooms.
Enjoy!
