Classic Cheesesteak Recipe

Classic Cheesesteak Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the ingredients

   Slice the ribeye steak thinly against the grain. Peel and slice the onion into thin rings. Clean and slice the mushrooms. If using bell peppers, slice them into thin strips.

2. 2

   Cook the steak

   In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the sliced ribeye steak. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the steak is browned and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté the vegetables

   In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced onions and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften. Then, add the sliced mushrooms and bell peppers. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

4. 4

   Combine ingredients

   Return the cooked ribeye steak to the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Mix well to combine and heat through for an additional 2 minutes.

5. 5

   Assemble the sandwiches

   Slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise but do not cut all the way through. Place equal amounts of the steak and vegetable mixture into each hoagie roll. Top each sandwich with 2 slices of white American cheese.

6. 6

   Melt the cheese

   Place the assembled cheesesteaks back in the skillet (or on a grill) for a minute or two until the cheese is melted and gooey. Alternatively, you can place them under the broiler for about 1 minute.

7. 7

   Serve

   Remove from heat, cut in half if desired, and serve hot. Enjoy your classic cheesesteaks with additional hot or sweet peppers on the side if desired.
