Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Slice the ribeye steak into thin strips against the grain to ensure tenderness.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Thinly slice the onion and mushrooms. If using fresh peppers, slice them into thin rings.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook until they are translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are softened. If using hot or sweet peppers, add them during the last minute of cooking. Remove the vegetable mixture from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Cook the Steak

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and increase the heat to medium-high. Add the sliced steak to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently until browned and cooked to your liking.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Combine and Melt the Cheese

    Return the cooked vegetable mixture to the skillet with the steak. Place the slices of white American cheese over the top of the steak and vegetable mixture, cover the skillet with a lid, and let it sit for 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted.

  2. 6

    Serve on Rolls

    Spoon the cheesesteak mixture onto hoagie rolls. Serve immediately while hot.
