- Knife
- Baking sheet (optional)
- Oven or broiler
Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables
Slice the onion and bell pepper into thin strips. If using mushrooms, slice them as well.
Keeping the vegetables thin allows them to cook quickly and blend perfectly into the beef mixture. The onions provide sweetness, while the peppers add freshness and color. Mushrooms contribute extra savory flavor.
Step 2: Brown the Ground Beef
Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the ground beef and cook for 5–7 minutes, breaking it apart into small crumbles as it browns. Continue cooking until no pink remains.
If there is excess grease, carefully drain it before moving on to the next step. This prevents the sandwiches from becoming overly greasy. (cooksymagic)
