Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 4 pieces hoagie rolls or sandwich buns
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 4 slices pepper jack cheese slices
- 1 pieces jalapeño, thinly sliced (optional)
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin and cook for 3-5 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic, chipotle chili powder, ground cumin, and paprika to the skillet. Stir well and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the beef to the skillet, and add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and lime juice. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the beef is fully cooked and coated in the spicy sauce.
Slice the hoagie rolls or sandwich buns in half lengthwise and lightly butter the cut sides. Toast the buns in a separate skillet or under a broiler until golden brown.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun.
Place a lettuce leaf on each bun, followed by a generous portion of the spicy beef mixture.
Top the beef with a slice of pepper jack cheese while it is still warm so it melts slightly.
Add sliced jalapeños (if using) and close the sandwiches with the bun tops.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dish, such as fries or a fresh salad.
