Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet or Flat Top Griddle For searing steak and sautéing vegetables efficiently.
  • 1 Sharp Chef's Knife Essential for thinly slicing steak and vegetables.
  • 1 Cutting Board For safe and effective prep work.
  • 1 Spatula or Tongs For turning steak and vegetables, and assembling the sandwich.
  • 1 Baking Sheet (optional) For toasting rolls or melting cheese under a broiler.

Ingredients
  

Main

  • 1 pound Double 8 Cattle Company Sirloin Tip Steak
  • 1 BOTTLE Bachan’s Japanese Barbecue Sauce
  • 2 Jalapenos seeded, sliced
  • 1 Onion peeled, sliced
  • 1 Green Bell Pepper seeded, sliced
  • 1/2 cup Mushrooms sliced
  • 2 Hoagie Rolls halved
  • 2 cups Shredded Provolone Cheese

Instructions
 

  • Thinly slice the sirloin tip steak against the grain, and prep all vegetables (jalapenos, onion, green bell pepper, mushrooms) by slicing them thinly and uniformly.
  • Heat a large skillet or flat top griddle over medium-high heat. Add a touch of oil if needed, then sauté the sliced onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  • Increase the heat to high. Add the thinly sliced steak to the hot skillet in a single layer, searing quickly for 1-2 minutes per side until browned, being careful not to overcook.
  • Add the Bachan’s Japanese Barbecue Sauce to the steak, tossing to coat thoroughly. Return the sautéed vegetables and sliced jalapenos to the skillet, mixing with the steak and sauce.
  • Briefly cook for 1-2 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the jalapenos to soften slightly.
  • Meanwhile, lightly toast the hoagie rolls in a separate dry pan, broiler, or toaster.
  • Divide the steak and vegetable mixture evenly between the two toasted hoagie rolls.
  • Generously top each sandwich with shredded provolone cheese.
  • If your skillet is oven-safe, return the sandwiches to the skillet. Alternatively, transfer them to a baking sheet. Place under a broiler for 1-2 minutes, or cover the skillet until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy your Asian Philly Cheesesteak.

Notes

Achieving the perfect texture is key. For the wagyu sirloin tip, slice it against the grain as thinly as possible – a slight chill helps. Sear it quickly on high heat to develop a crust while keeping the interior tender. The vegetables should be cooked to a tender-crisp stage, retaining some bite. Bachan's sauce offers a fantastic umami and sweetness; ensure it coats everything evenly without becoming too wet. Toasting the hoagie rolls lightly adds crucial structural integrity and texture. For the cheese, a quick melt under a broiler or by covering the pan will ensure gooey goodness without overcooking the meat.
