steak sandwich

Steak sandwiches always hit the spot. In my take, tender, juicy strips of steak and caramelized onions are covered with melty havarti cheese and nestled in between two buttery slices of baguette. Yum!

Steak Sandwich Recipe

butter (softened)

dill (diced)

garlic

tbsp oil

lb steak

salt (adjust

onion

Havarti cheese

baguette

To prepare herb butter spread, combine butter together with crushed garlic and diced dill, mix until you get the same consistency. Set aside.

Herb Butter

Slice the steak into thin strips.Tip: To make slicing a bit easier, freeze steak for a few minutes before slicing it.

Preheat an oiled skillet to high heat. Add beef to the skillet and season it generously with salt. Cook until the beef is just golden, remove from the skillet. Set aside.

Slice onion into half rings. Using the same skillet, sauté onions until they get golden brown. remove the from heat and set aside.

Slice baguette lengthwise, spread herb butter over both sides of the bread. Follow by slices of steak, onion and topping it off with cheese slices.

Keep the sandwich open and broil for about 2 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and melted.

Serve right away, while it&#x27;s still warm.

Steak Sandwich

Jibarito Plantain and Steak Sandwich are Puerto Rican plantain and steak sandwiches piled high with steak, spicy mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, and onions between two fried and smashed plantains. A sure crowd-pleaser.

Jibarito Plantain and Steak Sandwiches

green plantains

(77 g) mayonnaise

(5 g) garlic, (minced)

(5 g) hot sauce

½ teaspoon (1 g) chili powder

(227-454 g) steak, (thinly sliced)

(12 g) Sazon seasoning

(2 g) cumin

(1 g) oregano

(5 ml) white vinegar

olive oil

tomato, (thinly sliced)

onion,

lettuce

Swiss cheese

Using a sharp knife, cut the plantains in half.

In a large skillet, pour vegetable oil until at least 2-3 inches deep in your frying pan.

Set the stove to medium heat and wait until the oil is hot, about 375°F/190℃.

Gently drop the plantains into the oil using tongs. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry each plantain until it is light brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

Use a large, slotted spoon to remove the plantains from the oil.

Place plantains on a chopping board or flat surface and press down on it firmly with the back of a heavy plate, bottle or skillet until flattened. You want them to be about ¼-inch thick. Repeat with the remaining slices.

Refry the flattened pieces in the 375°F/190℃ oil, turning them occasionally for 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden, transfer them with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, and season them with salt and pepper.

Frying the Plantains

Whisk together mayonnaise, garlic, hot sauce, and chili powder in a medium bowl.

Refrigerate until ready to use.

Spicy Mayo

Season steak with salt, Sazon seasoning, cumin, oregano, vinegar, and olive oil. Set aside.

Heat a skillet on medium with 1-2 tablespoons of oil.

As soon as the oil is hot, put the steak in and fry each side for 2-3 minutes or until it reaches the desired doneness. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Steak

Spread some mayonnaise sauce on the fried plantain.

Add tomatoes, onions, beef, lettuce, and cheese.

Top with another plantain.

Cut in half and serve!

Assembly

Elevate a steak sandwich with a punchy, zingy chimichurri sauce, chipotle mayo and spicy Cajun-style fries on the side. It's perfect Friday night food

Chimichurri-style steak sarnies & cheat's spicy fries

rump steaks, fat removed

ciabatta rolls

rocket

sunflower oil

shop-bought frozen fries

Cajun spice mix

mayonnaise

tsp chipotle chilli paste

lime,

banana shallot,

red chilli, finely chopped

garlic clove, crushed

1½ tbsp sherry vinegar

parsley

coriander

extra virgin olive oil

Heat the oven to its highest setting. For the fries, pour the sunflower oil into a baking tray and put in the oven for 15 mins to get hot. Reduce the temperature to 220C/200C fan/gas 8. Tip the fries into the oil, turn to coat, and cook for 20 mins. Add the Cajun spice mix and return to the oven for 15 mins until golden and crisp.

Meanwhile, make the mayo by mixing all the ingredients together in a bowl. Set aside.

For the chimichurri-style sauce, blitz all the ingredients together until you have a smooth sauce, then season to taste. Set aside.

Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Rub the steaks with salt only (pepper will catch and burn), put the steaks in the pan and cook for 3 mins on each side (for medium). Remove from the pan, cover with foil and leave to rest for 10 mins.

Halve the ciabatta rolls, toast in the same griddle pan that you cooked the steak in, cut-side down, and spread one half of each with the chipotle mayo. Slice the steak into strips, divide between the ciabattas, drizzle over the chimichurri and add a little rocket. Serve with the fries and any leftover mayo.

Layered with perfectly cooked juicy steak, sweet caramelized onions, and herby pesto, this Steak Sandwich is unbelievably delicious! It’s seated between a crusty ciabatta bun and then topped with a handful of spicy arugula and fresh sliced tomato to make it unforgettably good. It’s the perfect easy weeknight meal or weekend lunch!

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onion and stir. Cover with a lid and cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the lid and stir in the sugar, salt and pepper. Cook for a further 10 minutes, until brown a bit and caramelize.

Caramelize Onions

Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Generously season it on both sides with salt and pepper. Using a grill or a skillet, cook the steaks to your preferred temperature and let them rest for 10 minutes.

Grill The Steak

Slice the steak into thin strips against the grain. Cut the ciabatta buns in half horizontally.  

Spread a tablespoon of pesto on each bottom half of the buns, then top with ½ cup each of baby arugula, followed by steak slices, caramelized onions and tomatoes. Spread mustard and mayo on the top bun then place on top.

Assemble Steak Sandwiches

This sandwich has few ingredients but delicious flavor. The tender meat with the addition of sliced garlic between fresh bread is a combination that cannot be beat.
