recipe by: Frankie
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 TBSP olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 1/2 cup pickled peppers (I used pepperoncini), chopped
- 6 ounces mild cheddar cheese, shredded
- 3 6-inch hoagie rolls, warmed or toasted
- salt & pepper
- toppings: mayonnaise, mustard, shredded lettuce, tomatoes
Directions
- Form the ground beef into 3 patties the same size and shape of your hoagie rolls. Generously season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
- When the skillet is hot add the oil and tilt the pan to coat evenly.
- Add the patties to the pan and cook until well browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side.
- Top the patties with the onions and peppers. Using a spatula chop the onions and peppers several times into the patties while breaking up the meat. Cook 2 more minutes.
- Top the patties evenly with cheese. Cover the skillet until the cheese has melted then transfer the meat to the hoagie rolls.
- Top with lettuce, mayo, mustard, and tomatoes.
