Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches

On day three of Super Bowl Snack week I am breaking the rules by not sharing a “snack”, but to me Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches are a great super bowl food.  In my version of of this classic, I pile sauteed steak and onions on a toasted hoagie roll and top it all with a savory cheese sauce. I wont lie, it is very messy, but it is totally worth it.

Ingredients
  

Ingredients:

  • 1 onion sliced
  • 3 tablespoons butter divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound thinly sliced round steak I found this in the meat section of my local grocery store
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire
  • 2 hoagie rolls
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 2 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • kosher salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven broiler.
  • In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon butter and olive oil. When butter melts add onion. Cook until onions start to turn brown and caramelize, about 10-15 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet add round steak, granulated garlic, worcestershire, salt and pepper. Cook until meat is cooked through, about 3 minutes.
  • While you're cooking the meat, in a sauce pan over medium heat, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter. When butter has melted, whisk in flour. Cook 1 minute. Slowly stir in milk.
  • Stir in cream cheese and shredded cheddar and cook until melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper
  • Toast the hoagie rolls under the broiler until they turn golden, about 1 minute.
  • Layer the meat, onions and cheese sauce on the hoagie roll. Serve

    Oh, I would add Peepers, either red or green, or both, sliced thin and some garlic added for a better taste experience.

    Amazing, I used a pan instead and I honestly never had cheesesteak but I’ll be using this recipe a lot more often from now on! Thanks a lot!
