Ingredients

For the Steak Filling:

1 pound ribeye steak, thinly sliced against the grain

2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced

1 large green bell pepper, sliced into strips

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

For the Cheese Mixture:

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded provolone cheese

1 cup shredded white American cheese

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

For the Bread Base:

1 large Italian bread loaf, halved lengthwise

4 tablespoons butter, melted

2 cloves garlic, minced

For Special Equipment:

Large cast iron skillet

Baking sheet

Aluminum foil

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Heat vegetable oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, then sauté sliced onions for 8-10 minutes until golden and caramelized.

Add bell pepper strips to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened, then remove vegetables and set aside.

Increase heat to high and quickly sear the thinly sliced ribeye for 2-3 minutes, cooking in batches to avoid overcrowding until just cooked through.

In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese with provolone, American, and mozzarella cheeses, mixing until well blended.

Hollow out the center of each bread half, leaving a 1-inch border, then brush with melted butter mixed with minced garlic.

Spread the cheese mixture evenly over both bread halves, then top with the cooked steak, onions, and peppers.

Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown on top, then slice into thick pieces and serve immediately.
