Description
A quick and satisfying take on the classic Philly cheesesteak, featuring ground beef, sautéed onions, and melted provolone in toasted hoagie rolls.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 recommended)
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced (optional)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 4 hoagie rolls
- 1–2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil until shimmering.
- Add the sliced onion and bell pepper, sautéing until softened and beginning to caramelize (about 6-8 minutes).
- Push the vegetables to one side and add the ground beef, breaking it up. Cook until evenly browned (about 6-8 minutes) and season with salt and pepper.
- Spread the beef mixture evenly across the skillet, lay provolone slices on top, and cover for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Lightly toast the hoagie rolls until golden.
- Spoon the beef-onion mixture into each roll and serve hot.
Notes
For a beefier flavor, use ground chuck; for lower fat, choose 90/10 beef and add a teaspoon of butter if needed.
