How to Make Cheesy Gordon Ramsay Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes You’ll Love
In a hot pan, brown 1 lb of lean ground beef until fully cooked, breaking it apart with a spatula.
In the same pan, melt 2 tbsp of butter. Add 1 diced medium onion, 1 diced bell pepper, and 1 cup of diced mushrooms. Cook until they’re fragrant and softened, about 5 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of beef broth, 1 tbsp of cornstarch, 1/4 cup of ketchup, 1 tsp of salt, and 1/2 tsp of pepper. Pour this mixture over your sautéed veggies.
Let everything simmer together over medium heat for a few minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the vegetables.
Return the browned beef to the pan, stirring until it’s fully mixed in with the veggies and sauce.
Turn off the heat and stir in 1 cup of shredded provolone cheese, allowing it to melt into the mixture.
Butter 4 brioche buns and toast them in a separate skillet until golden brown.
Generously spoon the cheesy beef mixture into the toasted buns. Serve warm and enjoy each melty bite!
Variations & Creative Twists
- Zesty Pepper Jack: For a spicy kick, swap out the provolone for pepper jack cheese. The heat adds an exciting layer of flavor that’ll keep you coming back for more!
- Veggie Delight: Make it vegetarian by using black beans or lentils instead of beef, and add some chopped spinach or zucchini for an extra boost of nutrients.
- BBQ Bliss: Mix in a couple of tablespoons of your favorite BBQ sauce for a tangy note that beautifully complements the richness of the beef.
- Mushroom Medley: Experiment with different mushroom varieties like shiitake or portobello for a more robust flavor profile.
