Preparation
  1. Freeze the steak for about 30 minutes to make slicing against the grain easier.
  2. Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Cooking
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, sauté for 5–7 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized, then remove from skillet.
  3. In the same skillet, add the seasoned steak in a single layer, sear for 3–4 minutes, stirring, until browned and cooked through.
  4. Return the onions and peppers to the skillet with the steak and toss to combine. Adjust seasoning.
  5. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  6. Slice hoagie rolls in half, spread butter on the cut sides, and toast on a baking sheet for 4–5 minutes until lightly golden.
  7. Fill rolls with the steak, onion, and pepper mixture. Top with shredded cheese.
  8. Return to the oven for 2–3 minutes, or until the cheese has fully melted.

Notes

For a saucier sandwich, stir a splash of beef broth into the skillet before filling the rolls to create a quick jus. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge; reheat in a skillet or oven.
