If you have ever been to the Philadelphia region chances are you have had or have heard of a Philly Cheesesteak. A good Philly Cheesesteak is like nothing you have ever eaten. Making one at home is never going to be the same as getting one straight off the griddle, but it is good enough if you can't get a good cheesesteak locally.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • Cheese Wiz or Deli Sliced American
  • Minute Steaks
  • Onion
  • Oil
  • Long Sandwich Roll

Step1
Let your frying pan warm to medium heat with a small amount of oil in it to prevent burning and sticking.
Step2
Chop you onion into desired sized pieces. Dicing the onion in chunks is usually preferred.

Put the minutes steaks in the frying pan whole and let them cook and they start to change color. Once they have softened and started to change color, use your spatula to chop up the minute steak into pieces or slivers of meat.

Step7
Let the cheese melt and the carefully lift the pile out and place it on your long roll.
