Categories     Light lunch

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 individual baguettes or submarine rolls
1 tbsp oil
1 onion, (thickly sliced)
1 bell pepper, (thickly sliced (I used red))
~ 6 medium mushrooms, (thickly sliced)
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika
2 slices spicy cheese
2 slices gouda cheese ((or other mild cheese))
To serve: fresh avocado, (sour cream (optional))

Steps:

  • First, prepare the rolls if necessary. I used part-baked baguettes so I cooked them in the oven until crusty. You can also use soft submarine rolls, if you prefer. Slice them lengthwise.
  • Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan, and add the sliced onion, pepper and mushrooms. Cook over a medium heat for around 10 minutes, until very soft. Add the cumin and paprika, and mix well.
  • Divide the vegetables into two halves in the pan, making the piles vaguely the same shape as your rolls (i.e. two long, thin piles of veggies). Top each pile of vegetables with a slice of spicy cheese and a slice of mild cheese. Turn the heat down to low, and cover the pan with a lid. Cook for another couple of minutes until the cheese has melted.
  • Scoop each pile of vegetables into one of the rolls, and serve with fresh avocado and sour cream if desired.

PHILLY CHEESE STEAK



Philly Cheese Steak image

It's hard to think of Philadelphia without thinking of the cheesesteak, a sandwich containing chopped steak, melted cheese and sometimes peppers and onions. The big cheese steak debate, ongoing between rival restaurants Pat's and Geno's, is whether the steak should be topped with Provolone or American cheese, or canned cheese whiz. Bobby Flay's loaded cheese steak recipe is topped with a melted Provolone sauce, onions, peppers and mushrooms.

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

2 to 2 1/2 pound strip loin, trimmed
Olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Soft hoagie rolls, split 3/4 open
Provolone Sauce, recipe follows
Sauteed Mushrooms, recipe follows
Caramelized Onions, recipe follows
Sauteed Peppers, recipe follows
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk, heated
1 cup grated aged provolone cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 pounds mushrooms (cremini and shiitake), coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoons canola oil
3 large Spanish onions, peeled, halved and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 poblano peppers, thinly sliced
2 Cubano peppers, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place steak in freezer for 30 to 45 minutes; this makes it easier to slice the meat. Remove the meat from the freezer and slice very thinly.
  • Heat griddle or grill pan over high heat. Brush steak slices with oil and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 45 to 60 seconds per side.
  • Place several slices of the meat on the bottom half of the roll, spoon some of the cheese sauce over the meat, and top with the mushrooms, onions, and peppers.
  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the warm milk, and cook, whisking constantly until thickened, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the mixture from the heat and whisk in the provolone and Parmesan until combined; season with the salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil and butter in a large saute pan over high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms are golden brown. Stir in the parsley and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat butter and oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook slowly until golden brown and caramelized, stirring occasionally, approximately 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Heat the oil in medium saute pan over high heat. Add the peppers and cook until soft. Season with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bread. A hoagie roll or a French baguette are both good options that can hold up to the fillings without getting soggy.
  • Use thinly sliced steak. This will help the steak cook evenly and quickly.
  • Season the steak well. A simple combination of salt, pepper, and garlic powder is all you need.
  • Cook the steak over high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
  • Add your favorite toppings. Some popular options include cheese, onions, peppers, and mushrooms.
  • Serve immediately. Cheesesteak sandwiches are best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Tex-Mex cheesesteak sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sandwich that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and tasty meal, give these Tex-Mex cheesesteak sandwiches a try.
