  • Ribeye – You’ll need 12 ounces of ribeye. Be sure to slice it into the thinnest pieces possible.
  • Sweet Onion – Grab your sweet onion and chop it into pieces or slice it into thin pieces.
  • Green Bell Pepper – You’ll also need to chop your green bell pepper into small pieces.
  • Hoagie Rolls – You can’t have these tasty cheesesteaks without the rolls!
  • Garlic – Grab a clove of garlic, peel it, and use a garlic press to break the garlic into small pieces.
  • Provolone Cheese – The cheese melts perfectly over the steak and adds an incredible taste to it. Ok, so if you are a true Philly cheesesteak fan, you know that Cheez Whiz is the go-to cheese. I am not a fan. But you can certainly add any type of cheese on your sandwich that you like. American is another great option.

You’re also going to need kosher salt, black pepper, unsalted butter, and garlic powder.

Do I have to use provolone cheese on these cheesesteaks?

No, you can swap it out with other types of cheese. It’s not uncommon for Philadelphia Cheesesteaks to have American cheese added to them. If you prefer American over provolone, feel free to use it!

No, you don’t. While this recipe calls for the addition of green peppers, which do add flavor to the cheesesteak, you can leave them out. Most traditional Philly Cheesesteaks don’t have green peppers on them, so if you’re looking for a more traditional flavor, you can leave them out.

How To Make A Philly Cheesesteak Recipe Tips

  1. You can turn this into a cheesesteak hoagie by adding sliced tomatoes and shredded lettuce on top.
  1. If you don’t have a garlic press or don’t want to deal with peeling fresh garlic, you can use pre-minced garlic from the jar to add that flavorful garlic taste to your cheesesteaks.
  1. These cheesesteaks taste amazing when served with a side of cheese fries. You can melt the cheese on top of the crispy fries and serve them on the side. If you don’t want to have fries, you can also serve these cheesesteaks with a bag of potato chips, which also go great with it!
