Ingredients
Steak
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 lb ribeye steak about 1 inch thick
- 1 tablespoon butter unsalted
Vegetables
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1 cup yellow onion sliced
- 1 cup green pepper sliced
- 1 cup mushroom sliced
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Cheese Sauce
- ½ lb American cheese cubed, white
- ¼ teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon milk
Remaining Ingredients
- baguette lengthwise, sliced in half
- 4 tablespoons mozzarella cheese shredded
Instructions
- Heat a cast-iron skillet on mid-high heat and season the steak with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/8 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper on both sides (or to your desired taste).
- Place the steak in the hot, dry skillet and allow to sear for 3 minutes, without moving. You want to get a nice caramelized crust on the outside of the steak.
- When the steak has a nice sear on the one side, use tongs and turn the steak over. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the pan and sear the steak for 2-3 more minutes (or until your desired temperature) while basting with the butter. Don't move the steak, just spoon butter over the top while it sears. Remove from the skillet to a cutting board and allow to rest while preparing the vegetables.
- Reduce heat to medium and melt 2 tablespoons butter in the skillet. Add 1 cup sliced onion, 1 cup sliced green pepper, and 1 cup sliced mushrooms. Salt and pepper the vegetables to your liking. Saute vegetables until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- While the vegetables are sauteing, combine 1/2 lb white American cheese cubes, 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic, 1 tablespoon, and a pinch of salt in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 1 minute on high, stir, and continue to microwave on high for 1 minute at a time, stirring in between each heating, until cheese is melted into a nice sauce. Thin the sauce with milk to your desired consistency.
- Slice partway through the baguette at 2" intervals to make it easier to pull apart when serving.
- Slice the steak into thin, bite sized pieces.
- Assemble the Philly Cheesesteak Bread: Spread 1/2 the cheese sauce on each baguette and top each with 1/2 the vegetable mixer and 1/2 the steak pieces. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons mozzarella cheese onto each baguette.
- Place baguettes onto a baking sheet and place under the broiler until cheese melts and bread is toasted lightly.
