Description
Open-Faced Steak Sandwich with Caramelized Onions
Ingredients:
4 slices of crusty bread (toasted), 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 lb steak (ribeye or sirloin, cooked to your liking and thinly sliced), 1 large onion (thinly sliced), 1 tablespoon butter, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 cup shredded Gruyère or mozzarella cheese, salt and pepper to taste, fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish).
Instructions:
1. Caramelize the Onions: Heat butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until the onions are golden and caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
2. Prepare the Steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper. In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and cook the steak to your preferred doneness. Let the steak rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
3. Assemble the Sandwiches: Preheat your oven’s broiler. Place the toasted bread slices on a baking sheet. Top each slice with thinly sliced steak, a generous layer of caramelized onions, and shredded cheese.
4. Broil: Place the sandwiches under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
5. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
