I am so excited to share this post with you! I was recently given the fantastic opportunity to take part in a sort of makeover challenge by Ragú. I was assigned to put my own twist on The Italian Cheesesteak Sandwich by Ragú.
Living in NJ, we are lucky enough to have Philadelphia just a short car ride away and what is Philly known for if not their cheesesteaks and I am a HUGE fan of them! What’s not to love about a cheesesteak? Beef, peppers, onions, cheese and crusty bread!
Despite my French last name, I am 100% Italian and I love giving dishes an Italian twist, so I was thrilled to get the Italian Cheesesteak as my challenge! All the same basic components but with the addition of a great go-to sauce like Ragu® Old World Style® Traditional Pasta Sauce and the use of some Italian cheese.
FUN FACT: Each jar of Ragu® Old World Style® Traditional Pasta Sauce is made with 11 juicy tomatoes, making it its richest, thickest recipe {*versus previous OWS formula}.
Here’s my twist: take all the goodness that makes up an Italian Cheesesteak and turn it into a oven baked dish! This dish was a huge hit and so perfect for a quick weeknight meal!
Ragú New Tra-Dish Italian Cheesesteak Bake
Ingredients
- 1 – 1lb loaf of ciabatta bread, cut into large cubes and dried overnight
- 1 1/2 lbs of sandwich steak, rough chopped
- 3 – 4 bell peppers, rough chopped
- 1 small red onion, rough chopped
- 1 1/2 jars Ragú® Old World Style® Traditional Sauce
- 3 cups Italian blend shredded cheese (provolone, pecorino, mozzarella)
Instructions
1. Cut the loaf of ciabatta bread into large cubes and place onto a baking sheet. Let them sit overnight to dry out, which will prevent the bread from getting overly soft during the cooking process. If you don’t have time, no worries, simply pop the baking sheet in the oven for about 10 minutes to draw out the moisture.
