Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Slice the Onion

    Thinly slice the medium onion and set aside.

Cooking the Onions

  1. 2

    Fry the Onions

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Cooking the Beef

  1. 3

    Cook the Ribeye

    In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the shaved ribeye to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 4

    Melt the Cheese

    Reduce heat to low, and add the caramelized onions back to the skillet with the beef. Layer the fontina and American cheese over the meat and onions. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit for about 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese.

Assembling the Sandwich

  1. 5

    Prepare the Hoagie Rolls

    While the cheese is melting, cut the hoagie rolls lengthwise without cutting all the way through. If desired, you can toast the rolls on a separate skillet or in the oven.

  2. 6

    Fill the Rolls

    Once the cheese has melted, scoop the cheesesteak mixture into the hoagie rolls. Drizzle sriracha ketchup over the filling, to taste.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Serve the cheesesteaks hot, with additional sriracha ketchup on the side if desired.
