Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¾ cup onion
    sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper
    cut into thin slices and seeds and core removed
  • 1 yellow bell pepper
    cut into thin slices and seeds and core removed
  • 1 green bell pepper
    cut into thin slices and seeds and core removed
  • 2 teaspoon steak seasoning
    (1 for veggies and 1 for beef)
  • 1 jalapeno
    optional sliced
  • 1 pound beef
    chipped beef (I found an Italian brand at the deli but can also get a beef lunchmeat in the packages or just fry yourself up a steak and cut it up super thin)
  • 1 cup chili con queso cheese sauce
    (melted and hot) (You can exchange with provolone slices or whatever cheese you like)
  • 4 buns hoagie bread
    cut in half lengthwise
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions

  • Preheat your pan, add 1 tablespoon of oil and fry up the onions, red, yellow and green bell peppers. Add a dash of steak seasoning and stir fry until fork tender and onions are golden about 4-6 minutes.  I used my iron skillet and it really made my veggies nice. Remove veggies from pan and keep warm. I fried the jalapenos up in a separate pan just until fork tender as I did not want my version spicy. (FYI ventilate your room if frying up jalapenos, you can thank me later for the advice)
  • Add another tablespoon of olive in your iron skillet or pan and add beef and 1 teaspoon of steak seasoning or to taste and fry up beef until it is no longer pink and the edges are slightly brown. While your beef is cooking, butter your hoagie breads and put on the grill pan or griddle butter side down until nice and toasty brown. In a separate little saucepan or in the microwave heat up your con queso cheese sauce until very warm but not boiling. Turn off all burners.
  • Assemble your Cheesy Beef Steak Hoagies with a Kick. Lie your hoagie breads with the bottom down and butter side up and pile high a mound of beef. Drizzle a couple of tablespoons of con queso cheese sauce on top. Mound on top of the con queso sauce the cooked tri-colored peppers, onions and jalapenos on top. Finally add a drizzle more of the con queso cheese sauce and then the top of the bun.
  • Enjoy your Cheesy Beef Steak Hoagies with a Kick  hot off the grill with some sliced fresh veggies or chips on the side and plenty of napkins.

Notes

We used soft hoagie buns. You can use gluten-free bread, if desired. Feel free to exchange cheese sauce with provolone cheese as desired.
