Hello, thanks for joining today
Hey, what's up guys?
Hey, what's up? We're in an RV
No, no
Okay, so this is you always wait for my head
So this is gonna be a very easy meal
This is one that I highly recommend for a weeknight meal when you get home from work
You're tired, and you just want something quick
so let's talk about a Philly a
Classic Philly cheesesteak has four components one your beef to your cheese
three your bread and
Four the onions you don't want any of those four to overpower
Any other part so you want an equal mix well today?
We're doing the lettuce wrap so you're not gonna get the delicious chewy crusty bread
But you are gonna get the delicious meat onions and the cheese so first step
I have my pan going a 12-inch skillet, and we're just gonna put some olive oil in and
we're gonna get our onions going and
It's debatable a lot of people like the onions raw in the cheesesteak
We're gonna cook ours a little bit, so they're not super raw
There's a little cooked, but I have them sliced really thinly and then we're just gonna start those
While those are just taking the rawness off. We're gonna get our beef ready
And I got a head start from the butcher at the beef store
He did a very thin slice
So you can ask to get a very thin sliced
cut of beef
Now with this I'm still going to cut it into strips
So you can get some really nice sandwich strips thinly sliced, so we're gonna just chop this up here
into thin slices
While the onions are getting a little softened up so today. We're just sticking with the classic Philly
with the exception of the bread
And we're just gonna keep it simple. I'm doing mine in lettuce wraps
Which I have the lettuce
Ready on the side here. I just have some bibb lettuce and
We're gonna put our cheesesteak right in there and make a little handheld sandwich
If you're not into lettuce wraps you could do a salad
Or if you're really just totally against the idea of having a Philly in any other form besides a sandwich
You could find a healthy whole wheat bread and do something like that or like a pita and that's fine, too
Get home from work. You're gonna be in and out of the kitchen in under a half an hour from start to finish
So our onions are going
They're already starting to get golden
this might
This is a great time to get your beef going in so I'm just gonna give it the beef a quick salt and pepper
And that's it for seasoning. There's nothing
There's nothing like overpowering or there's no special ingredient. It's just basics. This is your perfect basic meal in
with
the beef
I'm gonna switch tools here to a tong
Now in the sandwich shops they have great giant flat top griddles
And you might actually see them slicing and dicing right on the flat top
So we have the beef going here and we're just gonna give this a couple minutes to brown up
Once the beef is cooked through then we're gonna add in the cheese
Okay, so the beef is brown and the onions are perfectly cooked
We're at the stage now where we can add the cheese in a lot of common types of cheese that you would find in a Philly
Cheese steak are American cheese or provolone cheese. Some people also prefer the cheese whiz which
I'm not gonna use the cheese whiz but we're gonna use a provolone and
Get it shredded and add your cheese right into your skillet
you want to get the cheese so it's melted and
wrapped around all of those bits of steak and
Remember when I talked about you don't want any ingredient to stand out more than another ingredient
well by melting this cheese in that's gonna make it so you're not just biting into a big brick of cold cheese and
It just once you get that cheese mixed into it. It strings it all together
It makes it gooey. So when you take that bite, it just stretches just the way you want it to stretch and
This is it guys. I'm gonna plate this up and
We're literally done. It was that quick and that easy. So here you have it
I would also serve this with some vegetables or some rice or something on the side
but I gotta tell you the correct way that you order a Philly cheesesteak sandwich when you're in Philly is
Number one you say your cheese style. So you say give me one Philly with American and then you got to say with or without
onions
