Ingredients

Cheesesteak Components

8 oz ribeye steak thinly sliced
2 hoagie rolls preferably Amoroso-style
1 small onion thinly sliced
4 slices cheese Cheez Whiz, American, or provolone
1 tbsp butter or oil for grilling
salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

Flat-top grill or skillet

Method

Heat a flat-top grill or skillet over medium-high heat and add butter or oil.
Add the sliced onions and cook until they become soft and golden brown, then push them to the side.
Place the thinly sliced ribeye steak on the grill, season with salt and pepper, and cook for about 3–4 minutes while chopping it with a spatula.
Once the steak is fully cooked, place cheese on top and allow it to melt.
Lightly toast the hoagie rolls on the grill.
Transfer the cheesy steak mixture into the toasted hoagie rolls, add onions, and serve immediately.

Notes

For an authentic experience, use Amoroso rolls and choose your preferred cheese: Cheez Whiz for a classic taste, American for creaminess, or provolone for a sharper bite.
