Ingredients

Scale

Bread and Cheese

  • 1 loaf crusty Italian or French bread, sliced lengthwise
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 slices provolone cheese
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise (optional)

Meat and Vegetables

  • 1 lb ribeye steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced

Other

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and green bell peppers and cook them for 7 to 10 minutes until they become soft and caramelized, then remove them from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook Steak: In the same skillet, increase the heat to high and cook the thinly sliced ribeye steak for about 2 to 3 minutes until just browned. Season with salt and black pepper to your taste.
  4. Prepare Bread: Lay the sliced bread halves cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. If desired, spread a light layer of mayonnaise over the bread halves for added flavor and moisture.
  5. Assemble: Evenly spread the cooked steak over the bread halves. Then layer the sautéed peppers and onions on top of the steak. Next, place the provolone cheese slices over the veggies, followed by a generous sprinkle of shredded mozzarella cheese on top.
  6. Bake: Place the assembled bread into the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the cheese has melted and is bubbly. For a golden brown finish, switch the oven to broil and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  7. Serve: Remove from the oven, slice into portions, and serve warm for the best flavor and texture experience.

Notes

  • You can substitute ribeye with sirloin or any tender steak for a budget-friendly option.
  • Mayonnaise is optional but adds a nice creaminess to the bread base.
  • Keep an eye on the bread during broiling to prevent burning.
  • For extra heat, add sliced jalapeños to the sautéed peppers and onions.
  • Use freshly shredded cheese rather than pre-shredded for better melting and flavor.
