Marinated Philly Cheese Squares Recipes

GRILLED SKIRT STEAK PHILLY CHEESESTEAKS WITH HOMEMADE CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine the orange juice, soy sauce, maple syrup, olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl and pour over the skirt steak in a pan to marinate, up to 30 minutes.
• In a medium saucepot, bring the cream to a boil. Slowly whisk in the American cheese until a sauce is formed. Keep warm.
• Preheat a charcoal grill to medium-high heat.
• Toss the onions and peppers in a bowl with some olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place on the grill and cook until lightly charred and tender, 7 to 10 minutes.
• Remove the skirt steak from the marinade and cook on the grill until medium-rare, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise and butter the insides of the rolls. Grill until toasted, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Slice the steak thinly against the grain and fill the rolls. Top with copious amounts of cheese sauce, grilled vegetables and hot cherry peppers.

MARINATED CHEESE

Steps:

• In a jar with a tight fitting lid, combine the olive oil, wine vinegar, pimento, parsley, green onion, garlic, sugar, basil, salt and pepper. Shake vigorously to blend. Set aside.
• Cut the block of Cheddar cheese in half lengthwise. Cut crosswise into 1/4 inch slices to form squares. Repeat with cream cheese. Arrange cheese squares alternately in a shallow baking dish with slices standing on edge. You can arrange in a single long row, or 2 parallel rows depending on the size of your dish. Pour the marinade from the jar over the cheese slices, cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
• To serve, remove slices to a serving platter so they are still arranged in an alternating pattern. Spoon some of the extra marinade over the cheese, and serve with crackers.
