Instant Pot Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches Recipe

Who doesn’t love a good Instant Pot Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich? I have to admit, my Instant Pot sat in it’s box for about three months before I even opened it.

I had no idea what I was missing out on! I finally got the courage to open it and I can honestly tell you, I have used it almost every night since. I should probably get a second one now!

Before we get to the party, let’s just take a second and talk about my favorite kitchen gadget for those of you who aren’t quite sure what the hype is!

Instant Pot

Instant Pot Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches, but what is an Instant Pot?

Haven’t jumped on the Instant Pot bandwagon yet? Well, you may want to consider it just for this recipe alone!

Instant Pot is a seven-in-one multi-cooker! Here’s what it will replace in your kitchen: 

  • Pressure cooker
  • Slow cooker
  • Rice cooker
  • Yogurt maker
  • Steamer
  • Warmer
  • Saute Pan

Sounds a little too good to be true, but we promise it’s worth every penny! I haven’t used my slow cooker in weeks, which is saying a lot for this 3-4 times a week slow cooking girl!

Check out the reviews on the Instant Pot on Amazon and join the 1000’s of people who LOVE it! You can read about it HERE.

Now onto the recipe!

How to make Instant Pot Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches:

Set your instant pot to SAUTE and let it heat up.

Once heated, add olive oil, sliced green bell pepper, and sliced onion and saute until cooked through.

Usually about 5 minutes or until the onions start to lose their color.

Add sliced steak and Italian mix and saute meat with vegetables for 2 minutes, making sure all the vegetables and meat get seasoned with the mix.

Good Seasons Italian Salad Dressing & Recipe Mix

Pour in beef broth and stir one last time before hitting CANCEL on your instant pot to shut off the saute feature.

Swanson Beef Broth and Green Bell Pepper for Philly Cheese Steak Sandwiches

Place lid on Instant pot with valve set to “sealing.” Select PRESSURE COOK or MANUAL and set timer for 8 minutes. After timer runs out, let your Instant Pot do a natural release for 10 minutes.

French Bread cut for Philly Cheese Steaks

Cut French bread into 4 pieces (4 hoagie buns work as well!). Scoop meat onto sandwich and top with a slice of provolone cheese.

If you like your Philly Cheese Steak sandwiches toasted, place your open faced sandwich in the oven and broil on high for a few minutes, keeping an eye on it. Or in your toaster oven!

    Thie recipe states 1 1/4 beef broth. Are we to assume that this is "cups"?

      The video said 8 minutes in the instant pot for thin slices up to 15 minutes for thick slices. In the slow cooker on low for 4 hrs. Here is a link to the video, at 13:20 is the information they give. https://youtu.be/rHCA_nrVgZ0 Hope this helps.

        The meat we used in the video was precooked. So it doesn't take as long too cook. If you purchase raw meat it will take a little longer.

    Also wondering the instructions for making once it’s frozen. Directions seem to be for making it fresh. Also wondering what directions would be for a slow cooker after frozen

      In the beef and broccoli video she sauteed the frozen beef until it was browned on the edges and thawed enough that it broke apart. But then just follow the recipe as directed. The beef will thaw during the saute cooking time. Hope this helps!

    this was AMAZING. There is a video on the YouTube channel for freezing these ahead for those asking. I couldn't believe how great the flavor was and how tender (I know, it's an IP meal, I shouldn't be surprised!) this turned out. This is a definitely a new family favorite and since I can prep and freeze, it will be perfect on nights where I'm working late and need something fast. :)

    Loved the flavor, loved how tender the meat was—but my green pepper essentially disintegrated in the Instant Pot. Any suggestions how to avoid that? Maybe cut it into larger pieces?

      Yes, just cut into larger pieces if you aren't trying to hide it from the kids!
