Description
These Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes feature halal seasoned beef, sautéed vegetables, and melted provolone piled onto buttery toasted brioche buns. They deliver bold, cheesy comfort in a quick and satisfying sandwich.
Ingredients
450g halal lean ground beef
30g butter
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 small green bell pepper, diced
230g brown mushrooms, minced
30g ketchup
240ml halal beef broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Salt and pepper to taste
225g provolone cheese (made with microbial rennet), chopped or shredded
6 brioche hamburger buns
Instructions
- Heat a large pan over medium-high heat and brown the halal lean ground beef, breaking it apart as it cooks. Once fully browned, remove from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, melt the butter and sauté the diced onion, green bell pepper, and minced mushrooms until softened and lightly browned.
- In a bowl, whisk together the halal beef broth, cornstarch, ketchup, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the vegetables and simmer until thickened into a rich sauce.
- Return the cooked beef to the pan and stir thoroughly so the meat absorbs the sauce.
- Turn off the heat and stir in the provolone cheese, allowing it to melt completely into a creamy filling.
- Butter and toast the brioche buns until golden and slightly crisp.
- Generously spoon the cheesy beef mixture onto the toasted buns and serve warm.
Notes
Substitute mozzarella or white American cheese for a different flavor profile.
Add sliced jalapeños or red pepper flakes for extra heat.
Store the beef mixture separately from the buns in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Freeze the cooled filling in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months and thaw overnight before reheating.
Toast buns well and assemble just before serving to prevent sogginess.
