Prepping for Winter Philly Cheesesteak Soup

STEP BY STEP

Directions

1. Preheat oven to broil and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large pot over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Add steak and season with salt and pepper. Sear on all sides until meat is deeply golden and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove meat and set aside.
2. Add remaining oil to pot and add in onions and peppers. Cook until onions are partially translucent and peppers have softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, then season with salt and pepper and sprinkle all over with flour. Cook 2 minutes, until flour turns slightly golden.
3. Add in broth, cream, and 1/2 cup provolone. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Cook 10 minutes to allow soup to thicken slightly and flavours to meld.
4. Cut the top off breads and scoop out the inside bread to create a bowl. Cube bread removed from top of loaf. Place on a prepared baking sheet.
5. When soup is thickened, stir in beef and ladle into bread bowls. Top with cubed bread and remaining cheese and broil until cheese is melty and golden.
6. Garnish with parlsey before serving.
