Mushroom Cheesesteak
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 pound of mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 4 slices of provolone cheese
- 4 hoagie rolls
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, until they are golden brown and tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the sliced onion and green bell pepper until they are soft and caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Open the hoagie rolls and place a slice of provolone cheese on each bottom half. Place the rolls on a baking sheet and bake for 3-5 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the rolls are lightly toasted.
- To assemble the sandwiches, divide the sautéed mushrooms, onions, and peppers among the hoagie rolls. Serve immediately and enjoy!
The history of the classic cheesesteak with mushrooms dates back to the 1930s in Philadelphia, where the original cheesesteak was born. This vegetarian twist on the iconic sandwich emerged as a delicious alternative for those seeking a meatless option. Renowned chefs in Philadelphia, such as Chef Jose Garces, have put their own spin on this dish, incorporating locally sourced mushrooms and artisanal cheeses to create a delectable vegetarian version. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in Philadelphia's vibrant food scene, where chefs continue to innovate and perfect the art of crafting a mouthwatering mushroom cheesesteak. The key to getting this dish right lies in the sautéing of the mushrooms to achieve a rich, savory flavor that complements the gooey melted cheese and soft, toasted roll. Whether it's portobello, cremini, or shiitake mushrooms, the choice of mushrooms is crucial in creating the perfect texture and depth of flavor. For a unique twist, some chefs also incorporate caramelized onions or roasted peppers to elevate the dish to new heights.
