A Philadelphia cheesesteak, or Philly cheesesteak for short, is a large sandwich with a juicy steak topped with melting cheese. To grill the steak for the sandwich, it must be cut into very thin slices. This is easiest done with a very sharp knife when the meat is slightly frozen. Pan-fry the beef, place it on buns, top with fried red onions, and top with microwave-melted fontina cheese. Quick, delicious, and very satisfying.

Ingredients:

• 3 tbsp vegetable oil + more as needed
• 4 medium red onions, sliced ​​into 0.5cm wide rings.
• 1 top round steak (1 kg), frozen
• 220 g fontina cheese, cut into small cubes
• 4 long buns

Preparation:

Step 1
• Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over high heat. Fry the onion rings, stirring constantly, until softened and just beginning to darken, about 7 minutes. Season the onions with salt.
Step 2
• Slice the top round steak very thinly. It will be easier to slice if the meat is slightly frozen.
Step 3
• Remove the onion from the pan. Season the steak slices with salt and pepper, then fry them in the same pan, a few at a time, until cooked through, about 45 seconds per side. Repeat with the remaining steak, adding more vegetable oil if necessary.
Step 4
• Meanwhile, microwave the cheese cubes on low power for a few minutes until the cheese is completely melted.
Step 5
• Slice each bun in half lengthwise. Fill with a generous portion of steak slices, top with melted cheese and fried onions.
