- Prep Time: 15 mins
- Cook Time: 20 mins
- Total Time: 35 mins
Ingredients
For the filling:
- 1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 bell pepper, sliced (green or red)
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Worcestershire sauce, to taste
For assembly:
- 4 hoagie rolls, split
- 8 ounces provolone cheese, sliced
Instructions
1️⃣ Sauté the vegetables: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions and bell peppers. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn translucent and the peppers become tender.
2️⃣ Add mushrooms and garlic: Toss in the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are browned and their moisture has evaporated. Season with salt and pepper.
3️⃣ Cook the steak: Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak to the other side. Season the steak with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce (if using). Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the steak is just browned.
4️⃣ Combine everything: Stir the cooked steak together with the vegetables to fully combine. Adjust seasoning to taste.
5️⃣ Prepare the sandwiches: Preheat your broiler. Place hoagie rolls on a baking sheet, open-side up. Fill each roll generously with the steak and mushroom mixture. Top with sliced provolone cheese.
6️⃣ Broil to perfection: Place the sandwiches under the broiler for 2-4 minutes, just until the cheese melts and bubbles. Watch closely to avoid burning.
7️⃣ Serve hot: Remove from the oven and let cool for a minute. Serve the sandwiches hot and enjoy every cheesy, savory bite!
Notes
- Steak slicing tip: For easier slicing, freeze the ribeye for about 20 minutes before cutting. This will give you super-thin slices.
- Cheese swaps: Provolone is classic, but feel free to use American cheese or even mozzarella for a twist.
- Extra toppings: Add jalapeños, pickles, or banana peppers for a spicy kick.
- Leftovers: Store leftover filling in an airtight container and reheat in a skillet before assembling fresh sandwiches.
