For the Filling
-
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced (208g)
- 1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced (91g)
- 1/2 green bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced (85g)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder, divided
- 1 teaspoon salt, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
- 1 pound sirloin steak, thinly sliced (454g)
For the Assembly
- 4 hoagie rolls, split lengthwise (284g)
- 4 (1-ounce) slices provolone cheese (113g)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Cook Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion, bell peppers, ½ teaspoon each of garlic powder and salt, and ¼ teaspoon of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, until the vegetables are brown and caramelized. Remove the skillet from the heat and place the vegetables on a plate.
- Season the Steak: In a medium bowl, season the steak with the remaining 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ teaspoon of black pepper. Toss it to coat evenly with the seasoning.
- Cook the Steak: To the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and heat it over high heat. Add the steak and spread it into an even layer. Cook, undisturbed, until the steak is browned, about 1½ minutes. Flip the pieces and cook until they are cooked through, about 1 more minute. Stir in vegetables to rewarm. Remove the skillet from the heat.
- Toast Rolls: Meanwhile, open the rolls and place them cut side up on a baking sheet. Bake until they are lightly toasted, about 8 minutes. Remove them from the oven.
- Assemble Sandwiches: Divide the steak and vegetable mixture into 4 piles in the pan. Top each one with a slice of cheese. Cover and let the cheese melt for 2 to 3 minutes. Return to low heat if necessary.
- Serve: Place one section of meat and melted cheese into each of the rolls. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Slice the steak very thin. This ensures the meat cooks quickly, evenly, and remains tender.
- Avoid overcooking the steak to maintain a moist, tender texture. Overcooking can make the meat tough and dry.
- Caramelize the veggies to enhance their flavor. Cook them slowly until golden brown for a sweet, rich taste.
- Toast the hoagie rolls to create a sturdier base that holds the steak mixture and enhances the sandwich’s texture.
- Only toast the number of rolls needed when serving fresh for the best experience.
