Steps

1

Put the prawns in a ramekin or small bowl and drizzle with the lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and stir
2

Allow prawns to marinate for at least 30 minutes while you prepare the rest of your sandwich
3

Remove the crusts from the bread, toast on both sides, then decide which is going to be your top, middle, and bottom slice
4

Smear one side of the bottom slice with a thick layer of the Philadelphia cheese and season
5

Add the lettuce to the middle slice, drizzle with the Thousand Island dressing, then add the tomatoes. Add the oil to a skillet and bring to a medium-high heat.
6

Mix the steak seasoning
7

Slice the steak into strips...
8

... and season generously on both sides with the steak seasoning
9

Add to the skillet mixed with the onions and cook for about 2½ minutes turning every 20-30 seconds. Arrange into a shape roughly that of your bread and drizzle generously with ketchup
10

Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the cheese slice. Cover with a pan lid for about 2 minutes until the cheese melts
11

Remove from the pan and place on the bottom slice of toast
12

Add the prawns to the skillet and remove from the heat. Sit the middle slice of bread on top of the cheese steak

I'm a designer/artist and I learned to cook when I started making my own Chinese food over 30 years ago. I'm a lover of my native British food, but recently I've developed a taste for American comfort food, especially sandwiches and BBQ (watching too much 'Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives' probably). 😸 Unfortunately, we don't have any independent US-style diners or drive-ins in my neck of the woods, so I had to learn from recipe books and the Food Network. I'll also be publishing some traditional UK classics in case any non-Brits want to have a crack at Brit grub.
