Instructions
Preparation Steps
Heat oven to 400°F. Line a sheet pan with foil.
Split the bread lengthwise. Set cut sides up on the pan.
Stir mayonnaise with 1 teaspoon garlic and a pinch of salt.
Warm olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Soften onions and peppers for 5–6 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook until browned.
Push vegetables aside. Sear steak in the same pan until just cooked through.
Season with remaining garlic, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine.
Spread garlic mayo over bread. Mound steak and veggies evenly on top.
Cover with provolone. Bake until melted and edges crisp, 10–12 minutes.
Broil 1–2 minutes for extra color, if desired. Rest briefly.
Finish with parsley and red pepper flakes. Slice and serve hot.
Notes
Swap provolone with white American for a creamier melt, or add a swipe of cheese sauce under the steak. For make-ahead, prep the steak and veggies up to 2 days early; rewarm briefly before assembling. Leftovers reheat well at 350°F for 8–10 minutes.This recipe is an original creation inspired by classic Philly Cheesesteak Cheesy Bread flavors.
