Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 bell peppers (any color), thinly sliced
- 1 pound thinly sliced ribeye steak or sirloin
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 hoagie rolls or sub rolls
- 8 slices provolone cheese or cheese whiz
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced yellow onion and bell peppers. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and the peppers are tender, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the cooked peppers and onions from the skillet and set aside.
- Increase the heat to medium-high. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak to the same skillet. Season the steak with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cook, breaking up the meat with a spatula, until it’s browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Make sure the steak is cooked properly for your Philly Cheesesteak.
- Return the cooked peppers and onions to the skillet with the steak. Mix everything together well.
- Divide the steak and peppers and onions mixture into four equal portions in the skillet. Place two slices of provolone cheese on top of each portion. Cover the skillet with a lid or foil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and gooey. This is crucial for a great Philly Cheesesteak.
- While the cheese is melting, lightly toast your hoagie rolls. You can do this in a separate pan, under the broiler, or in a toaster oven.
- Carefully transfer each portion of cheesy steak and peppers and onions mixture into a toasted hoagie roll. Serve your homemade Philly Cheesesteak immediately. Enjoy this classic Philly Cheesesteak with peppers and onions!
Notes
- For an authentic Philly Cheesesteak experience, use thinly sliced ribeye steak.
- You can use white American cheese or cheddar cheese instead of provolone for your Philly Cheesesteak.

- Adjust seasoning to your preference.
