Classic Cheesesteak Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Slice the ribeye steak into thin strips. Season with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Sauté the Vegetables

   In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook for 5 minutes until translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until softened. If using, add the sliced green and red bell peppers and sauté for another 3 minutes until tender. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Steak

   In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the seasoned steak strips. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the steak is cooked to your desired doneness.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Once the steak is cooked, return the sautéed vegetables to the skillet. Mix them well with the steak.

5. 5

   Melt the Cheese

   Lay the slices of white American cheese over the steak and vegetable mixture in the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.

6. 6

   Assemble the Cheesesteak

   Cut the hoagie rolls lengthwise, but not all the way through. Spoon the steak and cheese mixture into each roll.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve hot, optionally with additional toppings such as hot or sweet peppers.
