It's funny. A Philly Cheesesteak, or variety thereof, is a popular part of our fast-food culture ... but do you ever try to whip it up at home? It's one of the easiest and quickest meals you can make -- save maybe some cold cuts on a slice of bread.
A cheesesteak is simply sliced beef, onions, peppers, and possibly mushrooms sauteed and slathered in cheese. The only spices and additional flavors are salt, pepper, and garlic. Slice everything quite thin, saute, season, and pile on a piece of bread. That's it!
The easiest way to accomplish this is to quickly slice up half moons of onions and strips of pepper and saute them while you quickly slice the beef (as thin as you possibly can -- meaning that you should have a decently sharp knife, serated won't cut it!). The veggies should be done quickly, since they're thinly cut. When they're soft, take them out of the pan, quickly saute the beef, and then add the veggies back in with the cheese. When it's all a melted mass, it's ready for the bread. Viola!
