Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 250 grams Ribeye steak thinly sliced
  • 1 medium Onion sliced
  • 1 medium Green bell pepper sliced
  • 2 slices Provolone cheese
  • 2 pieces Hoagie rolls
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper

Method
 

  1. Prep the Steak: Freeze the steak for 30 minutes for easier slicing, then thinly slice it against the grain.
  2. Sauté Veggies: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and bell peppers. Cook until soft and slightly caramelized (about 5–7 minutes).
  3. Cook the Steak: Push veggies to the side and add the sliced steak. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned (about 4–5 minutes).
  4. Melt the Cheese: Reduce heat, layer provolone slices over the steak, cover for 1–2 minutes until melted.
  5. Assemble: Toast hoagie rolls lightly if desired. Fill each roll with the steak and veggie mixture.
  6. Serve Hot and enjoy with chips or a side salad.

Notes

  • Substitute provolone with American or mozzarella cheese for a different taste.
  • Use a cast-iron skillet for better searing of the steak.
  • Add mushrooms or jalapeños for extra flavor.
