Ingredients

  • 1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 large bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • 8 slices provolone cheese
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (for heat)

Directions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onion, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute. Remove vegetables from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the thinly sliced ribeye steak. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Season with Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, salt, black pepper, and optional crushed red pepper flakes.
  3. Return the cooked vegetables to the skillet with the steak and toss to combine.
  4. Preheat your oven broiler. Place the hoagie rolls on a baking sheet and toast lightly under the broiler for 1-2 minutes.
  5. Divide the steak and vegetable mixture evenly among the toasted rolls. Top each with 2 slices of provolone cheese.
  6. Return the sandwiches to the oven and broil for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Serve immediately and enjoy!
