Description
A hearty steak sandwich made with juicy seasoned steak, golden onions, creamy Havarti cheese, and a garlic-dill buttered baguette.
Ingredients
Scale
Herb Butter
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, diced
- 3 garlic cloves
Steak Sandwich
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 lb steak
- 1 tbsp salt, adjust to taste
- 1 large yellow onion
- 4 slices Havarti cheese
- 1 baguette
Instructions
- Place the softened butter in a small bowl. Add the diced fresh dill and minced garlic cloves. Mix until the garlic and dill are evenly distributed throughout the butter.
- Pat the steak dry and season both sides with salt. Slice the yellow onion into thin, even slices.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add some of the oil. Add the sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and golden brown. Transfer the onions to a plate.
- Add the remaining oil to the skillet if needed and increase the heat to medium-high. Add the seasoned steak and cook until browned on the outside and cooked to your preferred doneness.
- Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let it rest before slicing thinly against the grain.
- Cut the baguette lengthwise and open it into two long halves. Spread the garlic-dill butter generously over the cut sides of the baguette.
- Toast the buttered baguette until the bread is warmed and lightly crisped, watching carefully so the garlic butter does not burn.
- Arrange the sliced steak over the toasted baguette and add the cooked onions.
- Place the Havarti cheese over the warm steak and onions. If needed, briefly return the open sandwich to the warm skillet or oven until the cheese softens and melts.
- Close the baguette, slice into portions, and serve while warm.
Notes
- Slice the steak against the grain after allowing it to rest for a more tender texture.
- Cook the onions patiently until they are soft and golden rather than rushing them over very high heat.
- Spread the garlic-dill butter over the inside cut surfaces of the baguette before toasting for the best flavor and texture.
