Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoon butter unsalted, melted
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 4 Hoagie rolls sliced almost through
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil divided
  • 1 pound rib eye steak one big 1 or 2 8 oz steaks, cut into thin strips
  • ¼ teaspoon salt or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
  • 1 medium bell pepper sliced
  • 1 large onions sliced
  • 8 slices provolone cheese

Instructions

  • Prep the rolls: Combine the butter with the garlic and then spread on both cut sides of the Hoagie rolls. Place them on a baking sheet with cut side up and transfer them to the oven under the broiler setting until the buns are toasted. Flip them over and toast on the other side, about 2 min per side.
  • Cook the veggies: Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and peppers, season with salt and pepper and saute for 5-7 minutes until the onions are translucent and start to brown. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Cook steak: Add the remaining tbsp of olive oil to the skillet and the steak. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 2 to 4 minutes until the steak is cooked through. Add the onion/pepper mixture back to the skillet and toss. Turn the heat down to low.
  • Add cheese: Divide the mixture into 4 using a spatula in the skillet. Place 2 slices of cheese over each quarter, cover the skillet with a lid and leave it for about a minute until the cheese melts.
  • Finish and serve: Using a spatula, spoon cheesesteak mixture into the toasted Hoagie rolls. Serve warm.

Notes

  1. When toasting your rolls, make sure to watch them, as they could burn quickly!
  2. The key to a good Philly cheesesteak comes down to choosing the right meat and cheese for your taste preference! Remember, everybody is different so finding what works for you is key to a good meal!
  3. Brushing the rolls with garlic butter ensures that we won't have a dry roll!
  4. I recommend keeping your hoagies and cheesesteak separately if you plan on having any leftovers. This will ensure your rolls don't get soggy! Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days.
