A quick and easy Philly cheesesteak recipe featuring thinly sliced ribeye, caramelized onions, and melted provolone cheese on toasted hoagie rolls. Perfect for game days, quick dinners, or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced
  • 68 slices provolone cheese
  • 4 hoagie rolls, split but not sliced through
  • 2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 small green bell pepper, thinly sliced (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice ribeye steak against the grain about 1/8 inch thick. Slice onions and bell pepper thinly. Pat the meat dry with paper towels.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and bell peppers with a pinch of salt. Stir occasionally until onions are golden and caramelized, about 12-15 minutes.
  3. Push veggies to the side of the pan. Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat until shimmering. Season ribeye slices with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Spread meat in a single layer and sear until browned but still juicy, flipping once. Add Worcestershire sauce and mix with onions.
  4. Combine meat and veggies in the pan. Lay provolone slices evenly over the mixture. Cover pan with lid or foil and let cheese melt for 2-3 minutes.
  5. While cheese melts, melt butter in a separate skillet over medium heat. Toast hoagie rolls cut side down until golden brown and slightly crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
  6. Assemble sandwiches by scooping generous portions of ribeye, onions, and melted provolone onto toasted hoagie rolls. Serve immediately.

Notes

For easier thin slicing, freeze ribeye for 20 minutes before slicing. Use fresh hoagie rolls to prevent sogginess. Cover pan when melting cheese to ensure even melting. Toast rolls with butter to create a barrier against sogginess. For gluten-free, substitute rolls with gluten-free buns or wraps. For dairy-free, use vegan cheese or omit cheese and add extra caramelized onions.
