Ingredients You’ll Need

For the steak sandwich:

– 1 lb steak (sirloin, ribeye, or NY strip), thinly sliced or cubed
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 green bell pepper, sliced
– 1 small onion, sliced
– Salt and black pepper, to taste
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
– 4 slices provolone, mozzarella, or cheddar
– 1 soft hoagie roll or sub bun, toasted

For the seasoned fries:

– 2 cups frozen French fries (crinkle or straight-cut)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– ½ teaspoon paprika
– ½ teaspoon garlic powder
– ¼ teaspoon black pepper
– ¼ teaspoon onion powder
– Pinch of cayenne (optional)

Let’s Get Cooking

1. Cook the Fries

Toss frozen fries with olive oil and seasoning blend. Air-fry or bake according to package directions until crispy and golden. While they cook, prep your sandwich.

2. Sauté the Veggies

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced peppers and onions. Cook for 5–7 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. Sear the Steak

In the same skillet, add your steak, seasoning with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Sear until cooked to your desired doneness, about 2–3 minutes per side depending on thickness.

4. Melt the Cheese

Lower the heat and add your peppers and onions back to the pan. Lay slices of cheese over the mixture and cover the skillet briefly to melt the cheese. Stir gently to combine everything into one glorious, gooey pile.

5. Toast the Bread

Split your hoagie roll and toast the inside lightly—either in a skillet with butter or under the broiler for 1–2 minutes. This helps keep the bread sturdy when the steak goes in.

6. Assemble and Plate

Pile the cheesy steak mixture into the toasted bun. Load up a plate with seasoned fries and serve immediately while everything’s hot and melty.

Variations to Try

– Spicy Kick: Add jalapeños or hot sauce to the sandwich filling.
– Garlic Bread Base: Brush your hoagie roll with garlic butter before toasting.
– Cheese Swap: Try pepper jack, Swiss, or gouda for a twist.
– Mushroom Melt: Add sautéed mushrooms for even more umami.
– Steak Tips Bowl: Skip the bread and serve over fries like a loaded steak bowl.
