Description

This Ground Beef Philly Cheese Steak is a quick and delicious twist on the classic sandwich, featuring savory sautéed peppers and onions, seasoned ground beef, and melted provolone cheese all tucked into a soft hoagie roll. Perfect for a satisfying weeknight meal.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef
  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • 8 oz provolone cheese, sliced
  • 1 cup sliced bell peppers (mixed red and green)
  • 1 cup sweet onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil


Instructions

  1. Preheat Skillet: Preheat a large skillet over medium heat and drizzle in the olive oil to prepare for sautéing the vegetables.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet, cooking them for about 5-7 minutes until they become soft and fragrant.
  3. Cook Ground Beef: Push the sautéed veggies to the sides of the skillet and add the ground beef to the center. Cook until the beef is browned, breaking it apart with a spatula while cooking. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
  4. Melt Cheese: Once the beef is fully cooked, evenly top it with sliced provolone cheese. Cover the pan briefly to allow the cheese to melt perfectly over the meat and veggies.
  5. Assemble Sandwiches: Open the hoagie rolls and fill each one generously with the cheesy beef and vegetable mixture. Serve immediately while warm.

Notes

  • Use lean ground beef to reduce excess grease and keep the sandwich lighter.
  • Sauté vegetables until tender but still slightly crisp to keep texture.
  • Covering the pan when melting cheese helps it become gooey and evenly distributed.
  • Customize with your favorite peppers or add mushrooms for extra flavor.
  • Serve with a side of chips or a simple salad for a complete meal.
