Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ribeye or sirloin steak thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil divided
  • 2 bell peppers thinly sliced
  • 1 large yellow onion sliced
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • 4 hoagie or French rolls

Instructions

  • Place steaks in the freezer while cooking the vegetables. Chilling the meat makes it easier to slice thinly.

Notes

  • Freeze the steak for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing it. Cold steaks will be much easier to slice than raw.
  • Don't rush cooking the veggies. They should be nice and soft and the caramelization will add a lot of flavor.
  • Lightly toast the hoagie rolls before adding the filling. This will protect them from getting soggy quickly, and will give you a nice crunch.
