A hearty and cheesy twist on the classic Philly cheesesteak, this recipe transforms a loaf of bread into a savory, melty sandwich packed with steak, peppers, onions, and provolone cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 loaf French bread, halved lengthwise
  • 1 lb ribeye steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 1 tbsp butter, melted (optional, for brushing)
  • Chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and bell peppers and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook until just browned, 3–4 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Place the halved bread on the baking sheet. Layer each half with shredded mozzarella, then spoon the steak mixture evenly over both halves.
  5. Top with provolone slices and brush the crust with melted butter, if using.
  6. Bake for 10–15 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove from oven, garnish with parsley, slice, and serve warm.

Notes

  • Freeze steak for 20 minutes before slicing to make thin cuts easier.
  • Customize with mushrooms or hot peppers for extra flavor.
  • Serve with a side of au jus or dipping sauce for added richness.
