Description
This Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joe recipe is a quick and easy twist on two classic sandwiches. Juicy ground beef is cooked with onions, peppers, and melted provolone, all piled onto toasted buns for a cheesy, hearty meal that’s ready in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
-
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
-
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
-
1 green bell pepper, chopped
-
1 lb ground beef
-
2 tbsp ketchup
-
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
-
1/2 tsp garlic powder
-
Kosher salt, to taste
-
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
-
1 tbsp cornstarch
-
1 cup low-sodium beef broth
-
6 slices provolone cheese
-
4 hamburger buns, toasted
Instructions
-
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking up the meat with a spoon, about 5–7 minutes.
-
Stir in ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
-
In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch into the beef broth, then pour it into the skillet. Simmer the mixture for 5 minutes, until thickened.
-
Lay provolone slices over the beef mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt, about 2 minutes.
-
Spoon the cheesy beef mixture onto toasted buns and serve warm.
Notes
-
You can use ground turkey or chicken as a leaner option.
-
Add mushrooms for extra flavor and texture.
-
Toasting the buns helps prevent them from getting soggy.
