EASY STEAK SANDWICH



Easy Steak Sandwich image

I tried for years to make a cheese steak as good as the takeout sub shops of southeastern Massachusetts. I think this is about as close as you can come at home. Freezing the steak the day before makes it easy to cut into very thin slices.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Sandwich Recipes     Beef

Time 25m

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons butter
¼ medium onion, sliced
4 large fresh mushrooms, sliced
¼ green bell pepper, sliced into long strips
1 (1/2 pound) well-marbled beef steak of any type, sliced as thinly as possible
3 tablespoons chopped pickled hot peppers
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
2 slices sharp Cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
⅓ French baguette, cut in half lengthwise

Steps:

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion; cook and stir until tender. Push onion to the side of the pan, and add the mushrooms. Cook and stir until softened, then add the bell pepper and cook just until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, and set aside.
  • Add the remaining butter to the skillet. No need to clean the pan, just let it heat up a little bit. Place the steak in the skillet along with the pickled peppers. Season with salt and pepper. The steak cooks really fast, just a couple of minutes. Once the steak is mostly browned, return the onion and pepper to the pan. Cook until heated through.
  • Turn off the heat, and place the slices of cheese over the top of the pile so they can melt. Scoop the whole pile into the awaiting bread, making sure to pour some of the juices onto that wonderful sandwich.

PHILLY STEAK SANDWICHES

Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 22m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan
2 large yellow skinned onions, sliced very thin
Coarse salt and pepper or steak seasoning blend
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, 2 drizzles
1 1/2 pounds lean beef tenderloin or sirloin, ask butcher to slice the meat very thin
1 teaspoon garlic salt
Freshly ground black pepper
8 slices provolone cheese, from the deli counter
4 soft Italian sandwich hogie rolls, split 6 to 8 inches long each, split lengthwise

Steps:

  • Heat a medium saucepan over medium high heat. Add 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, 1 turn of the pan. Add onions and season with salt and pepper or steak seasoning blend. Cook onions, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes or until onions are soft and caramel in color.
  • Heat a heavy griddle pan over medium high to high heat. Wipe griddle with a drizzle of oil using a paper towel. Sear and cook thin sliced steaks until brown but not crisp, about 2 minutes on each side. Cook steaks in single layers in 2 batches and tenderize by cutting into meat with the side of your spatula while they cook. When the steaks are browned, just before you remove them from heat, sprinkle them with garlic salt and pepper. When all of the steaks are cooked, line each of your split rolls with 2 slices of provolone cheese. Pile 1/4 of your meat and onions on to the griddle and mix together with your spatula. Pile the meat and onions into rolls on top of the cheese. The heat from the meat and onions will melt the cheese. Repeat for remaining servings and serve.

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.

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.

Provided by fotoe!78

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Sandwich Recipes     Beef

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 hard rolls, split
½ cup mayonnaise
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds round steak, thinly sliced
1 large onion, sliced and quartered
1 pinch coarse sea salt
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
⅛ teaspoon liquid smoke
8 (1 ounce) slices provolone cheese
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Split the rolls open and toast them on a baking sheet in the oven while it is preheating. Mix together the mayonnaise, garlic, and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use. Remove the rolls from the oven when toasted as desired.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the sliced steak and onions in the pan and season with sea salt, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Cook and stir until the steak is browned and the onion is tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Generously spread the prepared garlic-Parmesan mayonnaise on both halves of the toasted rolls. Divide the steak and onion mixture evenly among the bottom halves of the rolls, piling them high. Top each with 2 slices provolone cheese and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Place the tops on the sandwiches.
  • Bake the sandwiches on a baking sheet in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality steak: Opt for well-marbled and tender cuts like ribeye, strip, or tenderloin for a juicy and flavorful sandwich steak.
  • Tenderize the steak: Use a meat mallet or tenderizer to break down the muscle fibers and make the steak more tender. Marinating the steak in a tenderizing solution, such as vinegar or lemon juice, can also help.
  • Season the steak generously: Season the steak liberally with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika for a classic steak sandwich flavor.
  • Cook the steak over high heat: Sear the steak in a hot pan or grill to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices. Cook the steak to your desired doneness, but be careful not to overcook it, or it will become tough.
  • Let the steak rest: After cooking, let the steak rest for a few minutes to allow the juices to redistribute and make the steak more tender.
  • Use high-quality bread: Choose a sturdy and flavorful bread that can hold up to the juicy steak, such as a crusty baguette, ciabatta, or sourdough.
  • Load up the toppings: Add your favorite toppings to the sandwich, such as cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and condiments like mustard, mayonnaise, or steak sauce.

Conclusion:

With the right steak, proper preparation, and cooking techniques, you can create a mouthwatering sandwich steak that is juicy, flavorful, and packed with your favorite toppings. Experiment with different cuts of steak, seasonings, and toppings to find your perfect sandwich steak recipe. Enjoy your culinary creation with family and friends, and don’t forget to savor every bite!
