Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye steak
  • 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • 4 hoagie rolls or ciabatta bread, sliced in half
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Butter, for spreading

Instructions

  1. Preheat Panini Press (5 minutes): Preheat your panini press or a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Cook the Steak (10 minutes): Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced steak, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until browned and no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Sauté Vegetables (5 minutes): In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if necessary, and sauté the green peppers and onions with minced garlic until they are tender and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
  4. Assemble the Panini (5 minutes): Butter the outside of each bread slice. On the inside, layer a slice of provolone cheese, followed by a portion of the cooked steak, sautéed peppers and onions, and another slice of cheese. Top with the other half of the bread.
  5. Grill the Panini (5 minutes): Place the assembled sandwich in the preheated panini press. Grill until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes. If using a skillet, press down with a spatula and flip halfway through cooking.
  6. Serve (2 minutes): Cut each panini in half and serve hot.

Notes

1This panini offers a delicious way to enjoy the flavors of a cheesesteak with the added crunch and toasty texture of a grilled sandwich.

For an authentic touch, you can add a bit of mayo or mustard before grilling, and always use high-quality steak for the best flavor.

Experiment with different types of cheese like American or mozzarella for a variation on the classic. Enjoy!
