One of my favorite comfort meals of all time is philly cheesesteaks. It’s not a meal I grew up eating, but one I learned to love after heading to college. My (now) husband and I made it all the time when we were dating. And it just kind of feels like home, if you know what I mean. If you don’t make it often, it may seem daunting. But these easy homemade Philly Cheesesteaks are going to blow your mind. I promise, they are simple!
Here’s what you’ll need
For this recipe in particular, you’ll just need a pan for the stovetop. However, if you want to really finish this sandwich off properly, an air fryer is perfect. If you still haven’t invested in an air fryer, I recommend this one.
Here are the other ingredients you’ll need:
- 14 ounces of Shaved Steak
- 1 onion, sliced
- 8 ounces of baby bella mushrooms, sliced
- 8 slices of Provolone Cheese
- Mayonnaise
That’s it! It really is only 5 ingredients. And it takes just minutes to prep.

Easy Homemade Philly Cheesesteaks
Ingredients
- 14 ounces of Shaved Steak
- 1 onion, sliced
- 8 ounces of baby bella mushrooms, sliced
- 8 slices of Provolone Cheese
- Mayonnaise
Instructions
INGREDIENTS -
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil with onions.
You want to sauté them on medium low heat until they become soft and translucent. I choose to do sliced onion, but you can totally dice them up as well!
- Once the onions have sautéd, add in the mushrooms.
Be sure to season both the onions and mushrooms with salt. This helps to bring the moisture out of them and become soft. Not to mention, they need the flavor. - Once the mushrooms have broken down and soft (they will turn a darker color) add in the shaved steak along with 2-3 tablespoons of your favorite steak seasoning.
- Cook the steak until it’s cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Make sure to toss the steak around in the onions and mushrooms.
- Grab your hoagie buns and place mayo on both sides of the bread.
- Place steak on top of the bottom roll and the provolone cheese on top.
- Place in an air fryer on 350° (or the oven) to toast the bread and melt the cheese. In the air fryer it’s about 1-2 minutes (if using the oven, expect 5-8 minutes).
- ENJOY!
