The Original Pat's King of Steaks Philadelphia Cheese Steak
Category: Main Dishes
Source/Author: "American Sandwich" by Becky Mercuri

Ingredients/Directions

      Note: The steak can be sliced thinner when partially frozen.

      Cheese Whiz (the most authentic, but American or provolone cheeses are OK)
      6 tablespoons soybean oil
      1 large Spanish onion, coarsely chopped
      24 ounces (1 1/2 pounds) thinly sliced rib-eye or eye roll steak
      4 crusty Italian rolls
      Sweet green and red peppers, coarsely chopped and sauteed in oil
      Mushrooms, coarsely chopped and sauteed in oil (optional)
      Ketchup (optional)

      Melt the Cheese Whiz in a microwave. Heat an iron skillet or nonstick pan over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons of oil and saute the onion to desired doneness. Remove onion. Add remaining oil and saute the sliced meat quickly on both sides. Place 6 ounces of the steak into each roll. Divide the onion among the rolls, and top with the hot Cheez Whiz. Garnish as desired with peppers, mushrooms and ketchup. Put on the theme song to the first Rocky movie and enjoy! Makes 4 sandwiches.
