Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 4 hoagie rolls
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare ingredients by thinly slicing ribeye steak against the grain into 1/4-inch thick strips. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over high heat. Add a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Sauté sliced onions and green bell peppers in the skillet until they become soft and slightly caramelized, about 5-6 minutes. Remove vegetables and set aside.
- In the same skillet, cook the thinly sliced ribeye in batches. Cook quickly over high heat, stirring frequently, until meat is browned and just cooked through, approximately 2-3 minutes per batch.
- Return the cooked vegetables to the skillet with the meat and mix together.
- Split hoagie rolls and lightly toast them under the broiler or on the skillet until edges are golden brown.
- Divide the meat and vegetable mixture evenly among the rolls, topping each sandwich with two slices of provolone cheese.
- Return sandwiches to the broiler or cover the skillet to allow cheese to melt completely, about 1-2 minutes.
- Remove from heat, let cool for 1-2 minutes, then serve hot and enjoy your Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches.
Tips
- Choose the Right Cut: For the best flavor and tenderness, use ribeye steak. Make sure to slice it thinly against the grain for a melt-in-your-mouth experience.
- High Heat Cooking: Searing the steak and vegetables over high heat is key to achieving that perfect caramelization and flavor. Don't overcrowd the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.
- Season Generously: Don’t be shy with the salt and pepper! Seasoning the meat well enhances the overall flavor of the sandwich.
- Toast the Rolls: Lightly toasting the hoagie rolls adds a delightful crunch that complements the soft filling. You can do this in the oven or on the skillet.
- Melt the Cheese Perfectly: To ensure your provolone cheese melts beautifully, cover the skillet or return the sandwiches to the broiler for a minute or two—watch closely to avoid burning!
- Customize Your Veggies: Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or jalapeños for an extra kick and depth of flavor.
- Serve Immediately: These sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh and hot, so gather your friends and family around to share in the deliciousness right away!
