Bistro Style Beef Steak Sandwich Recipes

ULTIMATE STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Split the rolls open and toast them on a baking sheet in the oven while it is preheating. Mix together the mayonnaise, garlic, and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use. Remove the rolls from the oven when toasted as desired.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the sliced steak and onions in the pan and season with sea salt, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Cook and stir until the steak is browned and the onion is tender, about 10 minutes.
• Generously spread the prepared garlic-Parmesan mayonnaise on both halves of the toasted rolls. Divide the steak and onion mixture evenly among the bottom halves of the rolls, piling them high. Top each with 2 slices provolone cheese and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Place the tops on the sandwiches.
• Bake the sandwiches on a baking sheet in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Season the steak liberally with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium saute pan over high heat until it's almost smoking, then sear the steak on each side for 1 minute. Reduce the heat to low and cook the steak for about 7 to 10 minutes, turning once, until very rare in the middle. Remove to a plate, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Slice the steak into strips.
• Using the same saute pan, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and thyme and saute for 10 minutes, until the onions are brown and caramelized, stirring occasionally.
• To assemble the sandwiches, spread a tablespoon of Mustard Mayo on the bottom half of each bun. Place a layer the steak strips on top of the mayo, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and top with the caramelized onion rings. Place the baby arugula on top of the onion rings, and cover the sandwiches with the top half of the buns.
• Mustard Mayo:
• Whisk the ingredients together in a small bowl. Serve at room temperature.
• Yield: 1 cup

STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Pound the flank steak to tenderize . Season it all over with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
• In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the steak. Cook for 3 minutes, without moving, then flip and cook for an additional 3 minutes for a rare to medium-rare steak. If you like it more well done, you can cook it longer. Remove the steak from the heat and set aside. Tent with foil to keep warm.
• Add butter to the same pan and melt over medium-low heat. Add the onions and sauté for 20 minutes or until the onions are softened and starting to caramelize.
• While the onions cook, prepare the horseradish mayo.
• Preheat the broiler to high. Whisk together the mayonnaise, horseradish, garlic, and sour cream.
• Brush the rolls with oil and toast directly on the oven rack under the broiler or in a pan until golden brown. Watch closely as the bread can burn easily.
• Slice the steak against the grain .
• Slather the horseradish mayo over the cut sides of each roll. Divide steak between the rolls, then add the cheese, half of the onions, and arugula. Serve immediately and enjoy.

EASY STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion; cook and stir until tender. Push onion to the side of the pan, and add the mushrooms. Cook and stir until softened, then add the bell pepper and cook just until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, and set aside.
• Add the remaining butter to the skillet. No need to clean the pan, just let it heat up a little bit. Place the steak in the skillet along with the pickled peppers. Season with salt and pepper. The steak cooks really fast, just a couple of minutes. Once the steak is mostly browned, return the onion and pepper to the pan. Cook until heated through.
• Turn off the heat, and place the slices of cheese over the top of the pile so they can melt. Scoop the whole pile into the awaiting bread, making sure to pour some of the juices onto that wonderful sandwich.
