Jeffs Original Chicago Style Cheesesteaks With Taylor Street Sauce Recipes

CHICAGO CHEESE STEAK

Steps:

• Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Sprinkle both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on the hot skillet without overcrowding. Reduce the heat to medium and sear the steaks until well browned, about 4 minutes. Flip the steaks and cook until medium/medium-rare, about 6 more minutes. Set aside, loosely cover with foil and let rest before slicing.
• Heat the oil over medium heat in a large nonstick skillet. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper and toss in the oil. Sweat the onions until soft and slightly golden in color, about 15 minutes. Set aside.
• For the sandwich build: Thinly slice the steaks and trim off excess fat. Return the meat to the skillet over medium heat, in batches if necessary, creating a pile for each sandwich. Add the onions on top of the meat and then the shredded cheese on top of the onions. Add a roll on top of each pile to meld with the cheese and heat up the bun. Once the cheese is melted, using a spatula, remove the upside down sandwich and turn right side up. Add the giardiniera relish. DO NOT CUT and eat until gone.

SWISS CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Set a medium saucepan over low heat and add the evaporated milk. Toss the Swiss cheese and cornstarch together in a bowl until totally coated. Whisk the Swiss and American cheese into the saucepan and heat, stirring constantly, until the cheese is completely melted, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.

STEAK JOINT CHICAGO CHEESE STEAK

Steps:

• Heat a little canola oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Sprinkle both sides of the rib eyes with granulated garlic, salt and pepper. Lower the heat to medium-high and place the rib eyes in the skillet without overcrowding. Sear the rib eyes until well browned, about 4 minutes. Flip the rib eyes and cook until medium/medium-rare, about 4 minutes. Set aside, loosely cover with foil and let rest. Mix the ricotta, Cheddar and provolone in a bowl and reserve.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Sweat the onions until soft and slightly golden in color, about 10 minutes. Set aside. Thinly slice the rib eyes and set aside.
• Divide the onions in 4 piles. Top each pile with a quarter of the cheese mixture, a quarter of the rib eye and an open roll. Let the cheese melt and toast until everything is gooey. Scoop up with a spatula, flip right-side-up and top each with the giardinera. Serve.
