  • Heat flat-top griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add 2 T avocado oil and diced onions (You may need to cook the onions / meat in 2 batches depending on the size of your griddle / frying pan.) Cook onions for 2 to 3 minutes until they are just beginning to brown.
  • Add sliced meat. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, using a spatula to continually move around and break up into smaller pieces. Cook until all of the pink is gone. Sprinkle meat and onion mixture generously with salt and pepper.

  • Allow to cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until cheese is melted and roll has begun to soften.
  • Use a long spatula to scoop the cheesesteak off the griddle / frying pan. Flip over, add your favorite toppings and serve hot! Enjoy :)

ORIGINAL PHILLY CHEESE STEAK



Original Philly Cheese Steak image

I had this in some diner in America. Have one right after work when you're hungry and tired. It's the best.

Provided by Jamie Oliver

Categories     main-dish

Time 17m

Yield 4 servings or 2 very hungry servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 onions, peeled and finely sliced
Extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper
Splash white wine vinegar
8 very thin sirloin steaks
Sea salt
8 ounces (225 grams) provolone
1 French baguette
A couple of handfuls of wild rocket, washed
French mustard

Steps:

  • Cook the onions in a little olive oil until golden brown, season with freshly ground black pepper and add a splash of white wine vinegar.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the thin slices of meat and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook the steaks on a very hot griddle pan, and after a couple of minutes turn them over and shave the cheese onto each steak. Warm the baguette in the oven.
  • To serve, slice the baguette in half, pile on the fried onion, then the steaks, top with rocket and finally spoon on the mustard. Place the top on the bread and slice into 4 or 2 pieces.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread. A traditional Philly cheesesteak is made with a long, soft roll that can hold up to the fillings without getting soggy. Look for a roll that is at least 8 inches long and has a chewy crust.
  • Use thinly sliced steak. The steak should be sliced against the grain into thin, 1/8-inch thick slices. This will help it cook quickly and evenly.
  • Cook the steak in a hot pan. Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet or griddle over high heat. The hot pan will help to sear the steak and give it a nice crust.
  • Season the steak simply. Just a little salt, pepper, and garlic powder is all you need to season the steak. Too much seasoning can overwhelm the other flavors in the sandwich.
  • Add the cheese at the end. The cheese should be added to the steak just before it is done cooking. This will help it to melt and become gooey without overcooking.
  • Load up on the toppings. A classic Philly cheesesteak is topped with sautéed onions, peppers, and mushrooms. You can also add other toppings like bacon, jalapeños, or avocado.

Conclusion:

The Philly cheesesteak is a delicious and iconic sandwich that is easy to make at home. Just follow these tips and you'll be enjoying a perfect Philly cheesesteak in no time. So what are you waiting for? Get cooking!
