Philly Style Cheese Steak

Step 1: Prepare the Steaks

1. Trim and Freeze:
   • Cut away the long strip of fat from each rib-eye steak.
   • Halve the steaks and lay them on a baking tray in a single layer.
   • Place in the freezer for about 40 minutes. This firms up the meat for easier slicing.

Step 2: Cook the Vegetables

2. Sauté the Onions and Peppers:
   • Heat 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil in a heavy-based pan over medium heat.
   • Add sliced onion, red pepper, and green pepper with a generous pinch of salt.
   • Cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the onions are golden and sticky.
   • Add 2 tablespoons of white wine vinegar and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
   • Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

Step 3: Slice the Steaks

3. Thinly Slice the Steak:
   • Remove the chilled steaks from the freezer.
   • Using a sharp knife, slice them as thinly as possible against the grain (aim for 1/4 inch thick).
   • Divide the slices into four equal portions for easy cooking.

Step 4: Sear the Steak

4. Cook the Steak:
   • Heat a skillet over high heat until it’s nearly smoking.
   • Place one portion of sliced steak in the pan, forming a pile the length of your sub rolls.
   • Fry for about 3 minutes without stirring, allowing some parts to remain pink.

Step 5: Assemble the Cheesesteaks

5. Add Vegetables and Cheese:
   • After 3 minutes, top the steak with a quarter of the cooked onion and pepper mixture.
   • Layer with 2 slices of cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of grated mozzarella.
   • Reduce heat to medium and cover with a lid for 5-10 minutes until the cheese melts and the steak is browned.

Step 6: Serve

6. Assemble and Enjoy:
   • Split open a soft white sub roll.
   • Use a spatula to scoop the cheesy steak mixture into the roll.
   • Repeat for the remaining portions.
   • Serve with American mustard and ketchup on the side for dipping.

Extra Easy Tips:

• Quick Prep: You can prepare the onion and pepper mixture ahead of time to save on cooking time.
• Freezing: If you're short on time, consider freezing the sliced steak in advance and then marinating it before cooking.
• Custom Toppings: Feel free to add toppings like jalapeños, pickles, or even extra cheese for added flavor!
• Serve with Sides: Pair with fries, chips, or a side salad for a complete meal.
