Ingredients
-
1 large French bread loaf, halved lengthwise
-
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
-
3 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
1 lb ribeye steak, thinly sliced (or use shaved beef)
-
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
-
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
-
1 1/2 cups shredded provolone cheese (or sliced provolone)
-
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
-
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Remove from heat.
-
Brush the cut sides of the French bread with the garlic butter. Place on the baking sheet.
-
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions and peppers, cook for about 5 minutes until softened.
-
Add the steak to the pan. Season with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until just browned, about 3–4 minutes.
-
Spoon the steak mixture evenly over each garlic bread half.
-
Sprinkle or layer provolone cheese generously over the top.
-
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
-
Optional: Broil for 1–2 minutes for a golden top.
-
Remove from oven, sprinkle with parsley if using, slice, and serve warm.
Notes
-
You can use hoagie rolls or smaller bread loaves for individual servings.
-
Add mushrooms or swap provolone for mozzarella or American cheese based on your preference.
-
For extra flavor, toast the bread with the garlic butter before adding toppings.
