Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Season the ribeye steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    Place the steak in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    While the steak is resting, wash and chop the lettuce and slice the tomato.

  4. 4

    Melt the Cheese

    Slice the cooked steak against the grain and return it to the skillet over low heat. Place the American cheese slices on top of the steak and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Cut the sub rolls open. Layer the lettuce and tomato on the bottom half, then add the cheesy steak on top. Drizzle house sauce over the steak and close the sandwich.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half if desired and serve warm.
