Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground beef
• 0.5 lb Ground pork
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 1 Large egg
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 Green bell pepper, sliced
• 1 Onion, sliced
• 6 Provolone cheese slices
• 4 Hoagie rolls
• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Beef broth
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs, egg, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Step 3

Roll the mixture into 1.5-inch meatballs (about the size of a golf ball).

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Sear the meatballs on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes total. Remove the meatballs from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze it, then add the meatballs back into the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the meatballs are cooked through.

Step 6

While the meatballs bake, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a separate large skillet over medium heat. Add the green bell pepper and onion slices, cooking until softened and slightly caramelized, about 8 minutes.

Step 7

Spread a thin layer of softened butter on the inside of each hoagie roll. Toast the rolls in a dry skillet or under a broiler until golden brown.

Step 8

To assemble the sandwiches, place 3-4 meatballs on the bottom half of each toasted hoagie roll. Top with sautéed peppers and onions, then lay a slice of provolone cheese over the top.

Step 9

Place the assembled sandwiches under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Philly Cheese Meatball Sandwich!
