Instructions
Grilled Toast
- In a small bowl mix together butter, Parmesan, and garlic.
- Preheat a grill pan to low.
- Butter each slice of bread on the front and back side with the Parmesan butter.
- Grill on both sides until golden brown and set aside.
Spread
- In a separate small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard.
- Smear the mayonnaise mixture on one side of each slice of grilled cheese bread.
Cheesesteak
- In a large pan add the bell peppers, onion, and a small amount of cooking oil, or butter, and cook over medium heat until caramelized and tender.
- Push the veggies to the side and add the meat in a single layer. Sprinkle with slap ya mama and black pepper. Cook over medium high heat, stirring occasionally.
- Start incorporating the bell peppers and onion into the meat.
- Add the sliced jalapenos. Stir.
- Next top with provolone slices and let melt.
- Once the cheese melts, sharply chop downward with your spatula to break the melted slices of cheese into the meat. Don’t mix. Remove from heat.
Assemble
- Place meat filling on top of half the prepared slices of grilled toast, and top with remaining slices. Enjoy!
Notes
Tips
- Thin Steak Strips are Best: Slice your steak very thinly, or shave it if possible, for the most tender, authentic flavor and texture.
- Slice the Veggies Thinly: Slice your veggies thinly, so they cook evenly and get nice and soft.
- Don't Overmix: Don’t overmix the meat after adding cheese. Those melty pockets are key.
- Low and Slow Toasting: Cook the bread over low heat for Texas Toast that's crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and not burned.
