  • Pepper, to taste
  • ¼ cup (30 grams) cornstarch

  • 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons (45 grams) butter

Instructions

  1. Slice beef into thin strips, preparing it for the signature Philly cheesesteak flavor profile.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high temperature, creating an ideal cooking environment for the meat.
  3. Sauté diced onions and green bell peppers until they become translucent and slightly caramelized, releasing their aromatic qualities.
  4. Introduce ground beef to the skillet, breaking it into small crumbles and cooking until completely browned and no pink remains.
  5. Drain excess fat from the meat mixture to ensure a clean, robust flavor foundation.
  6. Sprinkle worcestershire sauce and beef broth over the meat, enhancing the savory depth of the dish.
  7. Reduce heat and allow the liquid to simmer, letting the flavors meld and concentrate.
  8. Incorporate cream cheese and provolone, stirring until the cheeses melt completely and create a smooth, creamy texture.
  9. Toast hamburger buns until golden brown and slightly crisp around the edges.
  10. Generously spoon the cheesy meat mixture onto the prepared buns, ensuring an abundant serving.
  11. Optional: Garnish with additional provolone cheese or fresh chopped parsley for extra visual appeal and flavor complexity.

Notes

  • Customize the heat level by adjusting red pepper flakes to match your spice tolerance.
  • Cornstarch creates a delicate crispy exterior, ensuring salmon remains tender and golden.
  • Use fresh, high-quality salmon for the best flavor and texture in this quick weeknight meal.
  • Consider substituting gluten-free soy sauce or tamari for a gluten-sensitive diet option.
