Ingredients

• 1 lb flank steak
• 4 slices of provolone cheese
• 4 hoagie rolls or crusty bread
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/2 cup sautéed bell peppers (optional)
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon hot sauce (optional)
• Fresh parsley for garnish

How to Make Loaded Steak and Cheese Sandwich

1. Start by marinating the flank steak. In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Coat the steak with the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes.
2. Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness (145°F for medium-rare). Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
3. While the steak is resting, slice the hoagie rolls in half and lightly toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown and crispy.
4. Slice the grilled steak thinly against the grain. Place equal portions of steak inside each toasted roll.
5. Top each sandwich with a slice of provolone cheese. Allow the cheese to melt by placing the sandwiches back on the grill for an additional 1-2 minutes, or you can use a broiler for quicker melting.
6. If using sautéed bell peppers, add them on top of the melted cheese.
7. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and hot sauce (if using) to create a spicy spread. Spread this mixture on the top half of each sandwich.
8. Close the sandwiches, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately.

Tips for the Best Results

• Let the steak marinate for longer if you have the time—up to 2 hours enhances the flavor.
• Use a meat thermometer to check the doneness and avoid overcooking the steak.
• For extra flavor, consider adding caramelized onions or different types of cheese like cheddar or Monterey Jack.

Easy Variations

• Swap the flank steak for chicken or turkey for a different protein option.
• Add avocado slices or jalapeños for extra creaminess and heat.
• Use different sauces such as barbecue or ranch for a unique twist.

What to Serve With It

• Crispy French fries or sweet potato fries
• A fresh garden salad
• Coleslaw for a crunchy side
• Pickles or jalapeños for added zing
