Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Korean Kimchi Bulgogi Cheesesteak
  1. Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips for optimal tenderness. Chop the onions and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and sugar until smooth. Add the beef strips and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onions and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5 minutes until tender.
  4. Push the sautéed vegetables to one side and add the marinated beef. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until browned and cooked through.
  5. Add the chopped kimchi and stir everything together. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  6. Toast the hoagie rolls in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 2-3 minutes. Fill each roll with the bulgogi mixture and top with cheese.
  7. Transfer the hoagie rolls to an oven-safe dish and broil for about 2 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
