For the Fries:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Bake the Fries: Toss the cut fries with olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika. Spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
For the Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Cheese:
Cook the Steak: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak, season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce (if using). Cook for 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add more oil if needed. Sauté the onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms for 4-5 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat.
Assemble the Sandwiches: Butter one side of each slice of bread. Layer one slice of bread (butter side down) with a slice of provolone cheese, cooked steak, sautéed vegetables, and another slice of cheese. Top with the second slice of bread, butter side up.
Grill the Sandwiches: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Grill the sandwiches for 3-4 minutes on each side until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Serve:
Serve the Philly cheesesteak grilled cheese sandwiches hot with crispy oven-baked fries on the side. Add ketchup, mayo, or your favorite dipping sauce!
Helpful Tips:
For extra cheesiness, sprinkle cheese on the outside of the bread before grilling for a crispy cheese crust.
Pair with pickles or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
Soak fries in cold water for 30 minutes before baking for extra crispiness.
