Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches III

By Addie

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.

Makes: 2 sandwiches

Ingredients

• 1 onion, sliced
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 pound very thinly sliced round steak
• 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire
• Kosher salt and pepper to taste
• 2 hoagie rolls
• Cheese Sauce (recipe follows)

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat your oven broiler.

In a skillet over medium heat, add 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.

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.
