How To Make Classic Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich

Hey , everyone .

It's Natasha of Natasha's kitchen dot com .

And today I'm gonna share it with you all of our secrets for the best Philly cheese steak sandwiches .

This is so easy .

Scrumptious , beefy , cheesy , so good and wait for the taste test because you are gonna crave these until you make them .

So let's get started .

This recipe makes four sandwiches .

So you'll need four hoagie rolls .

Slice those about three quarters of the way through .

Now in a small bowl , stir together two tablespoons of softened butter with one pressed garlic , clove .

You already know it's gonna be good if there's garlic butter involved .

Spread that flavored butter onto the cut sides of your Hoy rolls .

The garlic butter makes these taste like garlic bread and we're gonna toast them which keeps the bread from getting soggy .

You wanna have all of your ingredients prepped and ready to go before you start cooking dice one large sweet onion and it may seem like a lot of onion , but it does shrink down a ton when it goes on the heat .

Now to slice up a rib eye steak .

I have a £1 rib eye steak here and I highly , highly recommend freezing it for about 40 minutes covered in the freezer , which will make it much easier to slice , trim off the excess fat .

Then super thinly slice your steak .

And here's a time saving tip .

You can ask your butcher to cut your steak paper thin for you .

Ok .

We are done with all of our prep super easy and we're gonna head out to the stove .

We love cooking Philly cheesesteaks on our outdoor flat cooktop .

And I'll leave a link to this amazing grill in the notes .

But you can totally use a skillet or an indoor griddle .

If you have one , start by toasting the buttered side of the bread on medium heat just until it's golden , then remove it from the heat .

Add about a tablespoon of oil to your cooktop and the diced onions , those until they're soft and caramelized , then transfer them to a separate dish .

Increase the heat to high and add another tablespoon of oil .

Add your thinly sliced steak and spread it into an even layer .

Let that brown for a couple of minutes undisturbed without turning .

Then flip it over season the meat with half a teaspoon of salt and half a teaspoon of black pepper and saute stirring occasionally until the steak is just cooked through , add the caramelized onions and stir them in with your spatula .

And I do like to give it a little rough chop to break up any larger pieces .

Divide that into four even portions and top each portion with two slices of provolone cheese .

Then turn off the heat to allow the cheese to melt .

Without over cooking the meat .

Spread a thin layer of mayo onto the toasted side of each roll .

And working with one portion at a time place , the toasted bun over each portion and use a spatula to scrape that cheesy beef into your bun .

As you flip it over .

Repeat this process with your remaining sandwiches .

Wow .

These are really hard to resist .

I it was hard not to eat these outside .

OK .

I'll just put it that way .

Oh my goodness .

We are gonna go right into this taste test because I cannot wait any longer .

Wow .

OK .

We're gonna pick the big one here .

OK ?

And I'm gonna cut this in half because I want you to see what's inside .

These are loaded .

Oh and I love that little bit of crispiness on that garlic bread .

Mm OK .

Here we go .

Check it out .

That's what I'm talking about .

Wow .

I love that .

This is staring back at me .

Oh my goodness .

OK .

Here I go .

Mm mm .

This is excellent .

Definitely restaurant quality .

Oh and that it's such a tender cut of beef .

It's so easy to chew .

Goes down nice .

Oh And then it's loaded with cheese and you know I've got a weakness for cheese .

Delicious .

And then the sweet caramelized onions and every bite .

Yum yum and again , don't skip that garlic butter on the bread because it's like serving this on garlic bread .

It's exactly what it is .

It is just , just ridiculously good .

I'm gonna chomp this down and also it doesn't need much , but I do love to serve it with a side of crunchy dill pickles .
