Ingredients

Scale

2 pounds top sirloin steak or ribeye, trimmed and sliced very thin
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
8 slices mild provolone cheese
4 tablespoons butter, softened
4 tablespoons mayonnaise
4 hoagie rolls, sliced through
4 oz sliced mushrooms
1 large yellow onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste)

Instructions

Place the steak in the freezer for 30 minutes to firm up for slicing.
Trim excess fat from the beef and season with coarse kosher salt and black pepper.
Chop the onion and slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise.
Mix softened butter with minced garlic and spread on the cut sides of the hoagie rolls. Toast on medium heat until golden.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet and sauté onions for 8-10 minutes until caramelized.
Increase heat and add remaining tablespoon of oil. Cook the thinly sliced steak for 2-3 minutes until seared, then flip.
Add sautéed onions back to the pan and stir with the steak.
Divide meat and onion mixture into four portions, topping each with 2 slices of provolone cheese.
Turn off the heat and spread mayonnaise on the toasted hoagie rolls.
Flip the meat onto the rolls, completing your cheesesteak. Serve promptly.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider adding Worcestershire sauce to the meat or experimenting with additional toppings like jalapeños.
