The Philly cheesesteak is a popular sandwich from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, traditionally made with thinly sliced beef and melted cheese served in a hoagie roll.

Instructions

1.In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons flour to create a roux. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until flour is no longer raw. Gradually whisk in cold milk and continue to cook, whisking constantly, until sauce thickens and comes to a simmer.
2.Whisk in 2 ounces shredded provolone cheese along with a pinch of nutmeg, cayenne pepper, and salt. Reduce heat, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted and sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
3.Season skirt steak with salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot, but not smoking. Cook steak until browned and medium rare, around 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from pan and let rest for 5 minutes before dicing into small pieces.
4.Heat another tablespoon olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add water, onion, and sweet peppers, stirring until vegetables are softened and water has evaporated, around 7 to 10 minutes.
5.Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
6.Lay baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush with remaining olive oil. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
7.Fill baguette slices with steak cubes and sauteed vegetables. Drizzle cheese sauce over the top of each mini cheesesteak. Sprinkle with additional shredded provolone cheese if desired.
