Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon butter
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 pinch salt
1 clove garlic, minced
½ pound very thinly sliced or shaved steak
1 (24 ounce) jar RAGÚ® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
4 Italian bread rolls
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
⅓ pound provolone or fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
½ cup fresh basil leaves, torn

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, mushrooms, green peppers, and pinch of salt. Saute until vegetables begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes; add minced garlic and cook another minute.
  • Push vegetables to one side of skillet. Add the sliced meat to the open area and saute until no longer pink, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • In a separate saucepan, heat Ragu® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce, Italian seasoning, and crushed red pepper over medium heat.
  • Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Slice rolls lengthwise and place, opened, on a baking sheet. Toast for 30 seconds under a broiler on low heat, watching them carefully so they don't burn; remove from oven. Rub toasted sides of rolls with cut side of whole garlic clove; brush lightly with olive oil.
  • Fold cheese slices into meat and onion/pepper mix and stir until cheese begins to melt; distribute among the toasted roll bottoms. Top with a generous spoonful of Ragu® sauce; save the rest for dipping if desired.
  • Sprinkle with fresh basil. Serve immediately.
