The Philly cheese steak is a classic American sandwich that is beloved by people all over the world. It is made with thinly sliced ribeye steak, melted cheese, and sautéed onions, all served on a long, crusty roll. The sandwich is believed to have originated in Philadelphia in the early 20th century and has since become a staple of the city's culinary scene. If you are looking to make an authentic Philly cheese steak at home, there are a few key things you need to keep in mind. First, you need to use the right cut of steak. Ribeye is the traditional choice, but you can also use flank steak or skirt steak. Second, you need to slice the steak very thinly. This will help it cook evenly and quickly. Third, you need to use a good quality cheese. Provolone and Cheez Whiz are both popular choices. Finally, you need to sauté the onions until they are soft and caramelized. Once you have all of your ingredients, you can assemble the sandwich and enjoy a delicious taste of Philadelphia.

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.

Provided by Bobby Flay

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.

PHILLY CHEESESTEAK SANDWICH (((AUTHENTIC)))



Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich (((Authentic))) image

I was born and raised in Philadelphia and this was my favorite lunch at the luncheonettes (sandwich shops). Places throughout the rest of the Country that claim to make Philly Cheese Steaks just do not get them to taste the same, and one of the reasons is that they do not use extra-virgin olive oil. Anyone who says that Pat's and Gino's in South Philly uses Cheez Wiz, is talking about the way they make it now. The old authentic way uses Provolone Cheese. Also, using deli roast beef is the same as using top round sliced wafer thin or frozen Rib-Eye roast shaved on an electric slicer. I was born in 1942 and this is the way they were made way back then. We are talking about authentic, not the way they are made now. If you make any changes with the ingredients or the directions, it will not be the same. Make it EXACTLY as written here.

Provided by Alan Leonetti

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large hoagie rolls or 2 large sub rolls
1/2 lb deli roast beef (very rare, sliced wafer thin, or you can use a frozen Rib-Eye roast shaved on an electric slicer, wh)
1 white onion (thinly sliced)
1 green bell pepper (thinly sliced) (optional)
2 teaspoons garlic (minced)
1/2 lb provolone cheese (thinly sliced)
extra virgin olive oil (for grilling)
salt and pepper
marinara sauce (optional topping) or ketchup (optional topping)

Steps:

  • Heat a griddle or a large saute pan over medium-high heat.
  • When hot, cover bottom with olive oil.
  • Add the onions and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until carmelized, which will take about 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, salt and pepper, and cook for about 30 seconds.
  • Then, push the mixture off to one side of the griddle.
  • Add the meat to the hot part of the griddle.
  • Cook, continuously flipping the meat over and slightly chopping the meat into slightly smaller pieces with 2 spatulas, until the meat is not pink, which should take about 2 minutes.
  • Mix the meat and the carmelized onions and bell pepper together.
  • Divide into 2 portions, and top both portions with the cheese to melt.
  • If using Italian or French bread, cut the bread in half, crosswise, and slice lengthwise to open for the 2 sandwiches.
  • Hollow out some of the soft white bread part from inside and place face down on top of the meat and cheese.
  • When the cheese is melted, and with 1 or 2 spatulas, flip the sandwiches over and add topping, such as marinara sauce or ketchup, if desired, and serve immediately.

PHILLY CHEESESTEAK



Philly cheesesteak image

Pile steak, onion, peppers, cheese, ketchup and mustard into rolls to make these American-style Philly cheesesteaks. Just the food for a movie night in

Provided by Esther Clark

Categories     Dinner, Lunch, Snack, Supper, Treat

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 10

300g steaks
2tbsp sunflower oil
1 onion , sliced
1 red pepper , sliced
1 green pepper , sliced
2tbsp white wine vinegar
8 cheese slices
50g grated mozzarella
4 soft white sub rolls
American mustard and ketchup, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a heavy-based pan or casserole dish set over a medium heat. Add the onion and peppers along with a good pinch of salt and fry for 20 mins, or until the onions are golden and sticky. Add the vinegar and cook for a further 5 mins. Season to taste.
  • Using a sharp knife, slice the steak as thinly as possible and pile the slices into four portions. Heat a skillet over a high heat until almost smoking. Put one portion of the steak slices in the pan in a pile that's roughly the length of your rolls. Fry for 3 mins over a high heat until some of the steak is cooked through, with pink bits remaining. Pile a quarter of the onion mixture on top, as well as a quarter each of the cheese slices and the mozzarella. Continue to cook undisturbed over a medium heat for 5-10 mins until the meat is brown and crisp around the edge and the cheeses have melted. Split one of the rolls open and carefully scoop the meat and cheese mixture into it. Repeat with the remaining meat, onions, cheese and rolls.
