Total Time 20 minutes
Servings 2 Cheesesteaks

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1 pound (450 grams) ribeye steak very thinly sliced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4-6 slices White American cheese, Provolone, or Cheese Whiz
  • 2 long sub rolls Amoroso's if possible

Instructions

  • Place a large skillet over medium high heat. Drizzle with vegetable oil.
  • Once hot, add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and golden, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the onions to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the thinly sliced beef in a single layer. Cook for about 2 minutes before seasoning with the salt and pepper. Continue to flip and cook until browned on all sides, using a spatula to cut the slices of meat into pieces.
  • Stir in the cooked onions and adjust seasonings to taste.
  • Separate the meat and onion mixture into two separate sides about the length of the roll being used. Cover each with slices of the cheese.
  • Cover the pan just long enough to melt the cheese, about 30 seconds.
  • Transfer one side of the meat with melted cheese to one roll. Repeat with the remaining meat and roll.
  • Serve the cheesesteaks immediately.
