Fast Philly Cheesesteak

Open the hoagies · mayonnaise

Place each hoagie roll face down on the cool griddle so they are all the way open. That helps the bread brown more evenly later. Spread 1 Tbs mayonnaise on each hoagie (inside the roll).

Preheat the griddle

Preheat the griddle to 350°F (or heat a large skillet over medium-high).

Prep the vegetables

Slice the peppers, onions, and mushrooms if they are not already sliced. Place them in a medium bowl and set aside until you are ready to cook them.

Toast the hoagies

Add 1 Tbs oil to the griddle and spread it around with your spatula. Place the hoagie rolls face down and brown for about 3 minutes, or until they are good and toasty.

Sauté the vegetables

Add another 1 Tbs oil and spread it around. Add the vegetables to the griddle and sauté for about 6 minutes. A timer helps so they cook through without getting too soft or over-caramelized.

Cook the shaved steak

Add the last 1 Tbs oil to the griddle. Add the steak and chop and flip so it breaks into small pieces. Cook until browned and no pink remains—about 3–5 minutes.
