1-Getting started: with this Philly Cheesesteak Sloppy Joes recipe is straightforward and fun, especially if you’re new to cooking. Begin by preheating your broiler to ensure everything melts just right later on. This quick process, which takes only about 20 minutes total, makes it ideal for busy lifestyles while delivering that crave-worthy savory sloppy joe recipe taste.

2-First, in a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon cornstarch and 1/2 cup low sodium beef broth until smooth, then set it aside for later. Next, heat 2 teaspoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the diced sweet onion, diced green bell pepper, and chopped mushrooms, sautéing them for about 3 minutes until they turn tender and aromatic.

3-Then, add 1 pound lean ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up as it cooks, and brown it for another 3 minutes; be sure to drain any excess fat for a lighter meal. Stir in 2 tablespoons ketchup, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 2 teaspoons taco seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to build those rich, layered flavors.

4-Pour in the cornstarch and broth mixture, stirring occasionally, and let it simmer for about 3 minutes until the mixture thickens nicely. Finally, scoop the beef mixture onto the 6 hamburger buns, top each with about 1/4 cup of the shredded sharp white cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese, and broil until the cheese melts, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
