How to Make The Best Pepper Steak Sandwiches

  1. Preheat your broiler or toaster oven to high.
  2. Heat 3 tablespoons of high-quality olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add 1 lb of thinly sliced beef strips and brown on all sides.
  4. Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, and 1 bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced, to the beef.
  5. Sauté until the onion and pepper are softened and browned around the edges, about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally.
  6. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic.
  7. Cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
  8. Meanwhile, brush the insides of 4 hoagie rolls with the remaining olive oil and toast them lightly under the broiler for 1-2 minutes per side, watching carefully to prevent burning.
