Ingredients
  

For the filling
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil Can substitute with olive oil for a richer flavor.
  • 1 large Sweet Yellow Onion Halved and thinly sliced; can swap with red onion.
  • 1 medium Red Bell Pepper Adds sweetness and color; green bell pepper can be used for a sharper flavor.
  • 1 medium Green Bell Pepper Feel free to use any mix of bell peppers.
  • 1.5 pounds Petite Sirloin Thinly sliced; ribeye or flank steak are good alternatives.
  • 3/4 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt Perfect for seasoning; standard salt with others can replace it.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Pepper Provides a little kick; substitute with fresh garlic sparingly.
  • 4 hoagie rolls Hoagie Rolls Any thick bread that holds the filling can work.
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter For toasting the bread; coconut oil for a dairy-free option.
  • 8 ounces Provolone Cheese Melts beautifully; mozzarella or a blend can be used.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Place beef in the freezer for 20-30 minutes for easier slicing.
  2. Heat a large sauté pan on medium-low heat and add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
  3. Add onions and bell peppers to the pan and sauté until tender.
Cooking
  1. Remove vegetables and increase heat to medium-high.
  2. Add the remaining oil and half of the chopped steak, seasoning with ¾ teaspoon seasoned salt and ½ teaspoon garlic pepper, cooking until golden brown.
  3. Return vegetables to the pan and mix well.
  4. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  5. Split hoagie rolls open and butter them, then toast in the oven for 3-5 minutes.
  6. Drain excess juices from the skillet and layer Provolone cheese over the steak and vegetables, allowing it to melt.
  7. Serve the mixture in the toasted hoagie rolls.

Notes

Let your ingredients come to room temperature before cooking for more even results. Avoid overcrowding the pan when sautéing the veggies to prevent steaming.
