Instructions

Prepare Rolls and Ingredients:
1. Slice hoagie rolls 3/4 of the way through using a serrated knife.
2. Dice onions and thinly slice the steak.
Toast the Rolls:
1. In a small bowl, mix softened butter with pressed garlic. Spread the garlic butter on the cut sides of the rolls.
2. Toast the rolls on a large skillet or griddle over medium heat until golden brown. Set aside.
Caramelize Onions:
1. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in the skillet or cooktop and sauté the diced onions until caramelized. Transfer onions to a bowl.
Cook the Steak:
1. Increase heat to high and add another 1 Tbsp oil. Spread the thinly sliced steak in an even layer and let it brown undisturbed for a couple of minutes.
2. Flip the steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook until fully cooked through. Stir in the caramelized onions.
Melt the Cheese:
1. Divide the cooked steak and onions into 4 portions in the skillet. Top each portion with 2 slices of provolone cheese and turn off the heat, allowing the cheese to melt without overcooking the meat.
Assemble the Sandwiches:
1. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the toasted side of each hoagie roll.
2. Place a toasted bun over each portion of cheesy beef. Use a spatula to scoop the cheesy meat into the roll as you flip it over.
Serve:
1. Serve warm and enjoy immediately.

Notes

For easier slicing, freeze the steak for 30–40 minutes before slicing. Freeze thicker steaks for 40 minutes and thinner ones for 30 minutes.
Add sautéed peppers or mushrooms for extra flavor, if desired.
