– 2 tablespoons olive oil for cooking and enhancing flavors
– 3 large jalapeno peppers Adds heat and freshness
– 1 large white onion
– 8 ounces filet mignon Provides tender protein
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1/4 cup salsa con queso (plus extra as desired)
– 2 large rolls, lightly toasted for serving
– 1 lb thinly sliced ribeye steak provides a rich, tender protein base for authentic flavor
– 1 cup sliced bell peppers (red, green) adds sweetness and vibrant color
– 1 medium onion thinly sliced enhances savory depth
– 4 slices pepper jack cheese melts to create a creamy texture with a spicy kick
– 4 hoagie rolls offer sturdy bread to hold the filling
– 1 tsp ground cumin to infuse traditional Mexican spice
– 1 tsp chili powder for subtle heat and smokiness
Instructions
1-First, heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat and roughly chop the jalapenos and onion. Cook them for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they caramelize and bring out their natural sweetness.
2-Next, rough chop the steak, season it with salt and pepper, and add it to the pan. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes until just done, making sure itโs tender and flavorful.
3-Then, stir in the salsa con queso to melt and blend everything together. While thatโs happening, lightly toast the large rolls for serving to add texture and help hold the filling.
4-Finally, spoon the mixture into the toasted rolls and serve with additional salsa con queso if you want more cheesiness. For dietary tweaks, adjust as needed based on your preferences.
