Crumpled Philly Cheddar Steak Bread seems like a tough recipe, but it is ready on the stove in less than 20 minutes and is the perfect recipe for a crowd.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED FOR CHEESESTEAK CHEESE BREAD
- Ribeye Steak: 16 ounces thinly sliced.
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- Rapeseed oil: For frying pieces of steak. You can replace rapeseed oil with sunflower, vegetable or grapeseed oil.
- Worcestershire sauce: Adds a delicious, spicy flavor to meat.
- Butter: For frying vegetables in a pan. I like to use salted butter to enhance the flavor of the vegetables.
- Green pepper: Adds a delicious crunch and zing to your cheesesteaks.
- Yellow onion: Chopped, adds a sweet and spicy flavor.
- Mushrooms: Chopped, for delicious flavor and texture.
- French bread: Cut in half lengthwise.
- Mayonnaise: For creaminess and tang.
- Provolone Cheese: I like to use provolone because it is rich and tangy and melts to perfection. You can also replace provolone with mozzarella, Muenster or parmesan.
WHAT CUT OF BEEF IS USED ON A PHILLY CHEESESTEAK?
Philly Cheesesteaks are traditionally made using thinly sliced ribeye meat. You can use different cuts positively, but they do not have to be as delicate. The cuts you will use in the crumbed bread are thicker than the cuts you would find in a regular cheesesteak since you cook them longer in the broiler and you need to make sure they stay tender. Other tender cuts of meat, such as sirloin or much-marbled New York steaks can shove.
HOW WOULD YOU MODESTLY CUT A STEAK?
The best way to thinly slice a steak is to partially freeze it before slicing. 1-2 hours in the freezer is enough to make slicing a breeze and the meat will naturally thaw after slicing in just five minutes.
CAN YOU ELIMINATE THE MAYO OR USE SOMETHING ELSE INSTEAD?
Mayonnaise adds moisture to the mixture, so the resulting cheese bread is soft and chewy. If you do not, the texture can resemble a crostini with cheese and meat on top. Bread can still be crispier than softer if you use butter instead of mayonnaise.
