This homemade version of the iconic Philly Cheesesteaks is pure comfort in buns/rolls. I have not tried an authentic Philly Cheesesteak (I feel so sorry for myself just by admitting it) but hey this one is so good those who know the real thing said that they almost cannot tell the difference! Made with simple ingredients, you can prep this in under twenty minutes. Ready in under an hour, this mouthwatering Philly is a whiz!
Here are a couple of tips for the best results. One is you have to choose a type of steak that is thin and well-marbled so it can quickly cook but still be nice and juicy. My first choice is sirloin because of its price and thinness or a ribeye if desired. How about the cheese? I use provolone for this recipe but some say that Cheez Whiz is one great option. Now, are you now ready to make this out of this world, crazy delicious Homemade Philly Cheesesteaks? Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 green peppers, thinly sliced
2 red peppers, thinly sliced
1 large yellow onion, sliced
Kosher salt
1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
8 slices provolone
4 hoagie rolls
How to make Homemade Philly Cheesesteaks
Step 1: Heat a tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the peppers and onions to the skillet and season with salt. Cook for about 12 to 15 minutes, stirring often until caramelized.
Step 2: Set the caramelized onions and peppers aside.
Step 3: In the same skillet, add the rest of the tbsp oil. Add the steak and cook for about 5 minutes until almost done. Then, season with salt and pepper.
Step 4: To the skillet, add the veggies back. Toss the veggies with the steak. Add the provolone on top and cook for another 3 minutes, covered, until the cheese has melted.
Step 5: Among the hoagie rolls, divide the mixture. Serve and enjoy!
