Mid-Atlantic Common Foods Recipes: Authentic Philly Cheesesteak Made Easy

Here’s the Philly Cheesesteak Classic Recipe, one of the most iconic sandwiches from the Mid-Atlantic region, perfect for anyone wanting to try a common food from this area!

What you’ll need:

• 500 g of beef, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 medium onion, sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, cut into thin strips
• 4 hoagie rolls or sub rolls
• 4 slices of provolone cheese or Cheez Whiz
• Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation Steps:

1. Prepare the meat:
   Slice the beef into very thin slices.
   Tip: If you find it difficult to slice the meat thinly, you can slightly freeze it for about 30 minutes before slicing.
2. Cook the onions and peppers:
   Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or griddle over medium heat.
   Add the onions and peppers, and cook for about 5-7 minutes, until they’re tender and slightly caramelized. Remove them from the skillet and set them aside.
3. Cook the meat:
   Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and cook the beef over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until it’s cooked through and lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Assemble the sandwich:
   Mix the onions and peppers with the beef. Place a portion of the mixture into each hoagie roll.
   Add one slice of provolone cheese or pour Cheez Whiz over the hot beef so that it melts perfectly.
5. Serve:
   Serve immediately, accompanied by fries or a small salad to complete your meal.
