What You’ll Need

Ingredients

  • 1 Red Bell Pepper Sliced
  • ½ Red Onion Sliced
  • Mozzarella Cheese shredded
  • BBQ Dip
  • 4 Submarine Breads (6″)

Equipment I Used

How to Make It

Preheat the Oven

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This step is to get the oven warm in preparation for broiling the subs later on.

Prepare the Steak

Take the Top Sirloin steak and slice it into bite-sized pieces. Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add a little oil if necessary, and sear the steak pieces for 1-3 minutes on each side, or until browned to your liking. Once seared, remove the steak from the pan and set it aside on a plate.

Cook the Vegetables

In the same pan, add the sliced red bell pepper and red onion. Sauté them over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, just until they begin to soften but still retain a bit of crunch.

Combine the Steak and Vegetables

Return the seared steak pieces to the pan with the bell pepper and onions. Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes, just to reheat the steak and blend the flavors. Once done, remove the pan from heat.

Prepare the Submarine Bread

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Take your submarine bread and lay it open on the sheet pan. Spread a generous amount of BBQ sauce on both sides of the bread, ensuring even coverage for a burst of flavor in every bite.

Layer the steak and vegetable mixture evenly onto the bottom half of each submarine bread. Top the steak mixture with your choice of cheese (Mozzarella, Cheddar, or another favorite).

Melt the Cheese

Switch your oven setting to broil. Place the assembled subs in the oven and broil for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly, but the bread remains soft. Keep a close eye on the subs to prevent them from burning.
