Philly Cheesesteak Recipe
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients:
- 1 lb ribeye steak, trimmed and thinly sliced
- 1/2 tsp sea salt, or to taste
- 1/2 tsp black pepper, or to taste
- 1 large sweet onion, diced
- 8 slices mild provolone cheese
- 4 hoagie rolls, sliced 3/4 through
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
- 1 garlic clove, pressed
- 2-4 tbsp mayonnaise, or to taste
Instructions:
- Prepare the Hoagie Rolls:
- Slice the hoagie rolls 3/4 of the way through using a serrated knife.
- In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with the pressed garlic.
- Spread the garlic butter onto the cut sides of the hoagie rolls.
- Toast the buns on a large skillet, flat cooktop, or griddle over medium heat until golden brown. Set aside.
- Cook the Onions:
- Add 1 tablespoon of oil to your pan or cooktop and sauté the diced onions until caramelized. Transfer the onions to a bowl.
- Cook the Steak:
- Increase the heat to high and add 1 tablespoon of oil.
- Spread the thinly sliced steak in an even layer on the pan.
- Let the steak brown for a couple of minutes without disturbing it, then flip it and season with sea salt and black pepper.
- Sauté until the steak is fully cooked, then stir in the caramelized onions.
- Assemble the Cheesesteaks:
- Divide the steak and onion mixture into 4 equal portions in the pan.
- Top each portion with 2 slices of provolone cheese and turn off the heat, allowing the cheese to melt without overcooking the meat.
- Prepare the Rolls:
- Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the toasted side of each hoagie roll.
- Working with one portion at a time, place a toasted bun over each portion of cheesy steak.
- Use a spatula to scrape the cheesy beef into the bun as you flip it over.
- Serve:
- Serve the Philly cheesesteaks warm and enjoy!
