Instructions
Caramelize the Onions and Peppers
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or flat griddle over medium high heat. Add the sliced onions and green bell peppers with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes until the onions are soft and golden brown and the peppers are tender. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
Cook the Shaved Ribeye
Increase the heat to high and add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the same pan. Add the shaved ribeye steak in a single layer and season with salt and black pepper. Cook without stirring for about 2 minutes to develop some color, then use a spatula to chop and break up the meat as it cooks for another 2 minutes until fully cooked through and slightly crispy at the edges.
Combine Beef and Vegetables
Return the cooked onions and peppers to the pan with the beef and toss everything together until well combined. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions in the pan and top each portion with 2 slices of provolone cheese. Cover the pan with a lid or aluminum foil for about 1 minute until the cheese is fully melted and gooey over each portion.
Toast the Hoagie Rolls
While the cheese melts, place the hoagie rolls cut side down in a separate dry skillet or under the broiler for about 2 minutes until lightly golden and toasted. Toasting the rolls is essential because it prevents them from becoming soggy once the juicy beef mixture is added. Watch them carefully as they can burn quickly under the broiler.
Assemble and Serve
Using a spatula, scoop each cheesy beef and vegetable portion into a toasted hoagie roll. Serve the sandwiches immediately while everything is hot and the cheese is still melted. If desired, you can add condiments like hot sauce, mayo, or banana peppers to customize your sandwich to your preference.
