Description
Learn how to make delicious ground beef cheese steak. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.
Ingredients
Scale
To create a delicious ground beef cheese steak, you’ll need a few staple ingredients that are likely already in your kitchen. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 4 slices provolone cheese
- 4 hoagie rolls
- Optional: 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes for a bit of heat
Feel free to make substitutions based on what you have—ground turkey works well as a leaner alternative, and Swiss cheese can provide a different but equally delightful flavor.
Instructions
Follow these step-by-step instructions to bring this delicious dish to life:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, and sauté until they become tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the ground beef to the empty side, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Mix the vegetables with the beef, and season with salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes to combine the flavors.
- Lay the provolone cheese slices over the beef and vegetable mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt, about 2 minutes.
- Spoon the cheesy beef mixture into the hoagie rolls and serve warm.
Cooking is about intuition as much as it is about following instructions. If the beef looks dry, a splash of beef broth can work wonders—another trick I picked up over countless family dinners.
