Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich

Cultural Context

Originating in Philadelphia, the cheesesteak sandwich has become an iconic American dish. Traditionally made with thinly sliced ribeye steak and melted cheese in a hoagie roll, it's a beloved street food that captures the essence of hearty, comfort food. While the classic version features provolone or Cheez Whiz, variations abound, showcasing different toppings and styles across the U.S.

ribeye steak

🥗Healthier: sirloin steak

💰Cheaper: chicken breast

Sirloin is leaner and less expensive than ribeye.

provolone cheese

🥗Healthier: mozzarella cheese

💰Cheaper: American cheese

Mozzarella is lower in fat, while American cheese is often cheaper.

hoagie rolls

🥗Healthier: whole grain rolls

💰Cheaper: submarine rolls

Whole grain rolls provide more fiber, while submarine rolls are often less expensive.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is a budget-friendly option.

1

Wash the mushrooms thoroughly and slice them.

2

Chop the bell pepper into medium-sized pieces.

3

Slice the vidalia onion into small pieces, avoiding large chunks.

4

Heat up a flat top grill or frying pan and add about 1.5 tablespoons of olive oil to prevent sticking.

5

Open the package of steak and place thin slices onto the heated grill or pan, adding more as desired without skimping.

6

Season the steak with a little salt, black pepper, and optional garlic powder.

7

Cook the steak until it is done, which should be quick due to the thinness of the slices.

8

Once the steak is cooked, layer on the white American cheese until it melts over the meat.

9

Assemble the sandwich by placing the steak and melted cheese onto the sub bun.

10

Add sautéed veggies (mushrooms, bell peppers, onions) to the sandwich as desired.
