Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound tender steak Any tender cut like ribeye, sirloin, or flank steak can be used.
  • 2 large onions, sliced Onions should be caramelized for sweetness.
  • 4 slices havarti cheese Can substitute with provolone or gouda for variation.
  • 4 slices baguette Crusty bread works best.
  • 2 tablespoons butter For toasting the baguette.
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preparation

  • Season the steak with a sprinkle of salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the seasoned steak for about 4-6 minutes per side until it reaches the desired doneness.
  • Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.
  • In the same skillet, add sliced onions and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until caramelized and golden, about 10 minutes.
  • Slice the rested steak into thin strips.
  • Butter one side of the baguette slices and toast them in the skillet until golden brown.

Assembly

  • Start with a toasted baguette slice, add a layer of sliced steak, followed by caramelized onions, and top with a slice of havarti cheese.
  • Optionally, place the assembled sandwich back in the skillet for a minute to melt the cheese slightly.

Serving

  • Serve the steak sandwich warm and enjoy each bite.

Notes

For leftovers, store steak and onions separately in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Store baguette in a paper bag to prevent it from getting hard.
