Savory Steak Sandwich with Garlic Aioli Delight
Ingredients
- 1 lb ribeye steak
- 4 ciabatta rolls ciabatta rolls
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 Prise salt
- 1 Prise pepper
- 1 cup arugula or spinach
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 Prise salt (for aioli)
Instructions
- Prepare the Garlic Aioli: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir until smooth and well-combined. Set aside in the fridge to allow the flavors to meld.
- Cook the Steak: Season the ribeye steak generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Slice the Steak: After resting, slice the steak thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness.
- Toast the Rolls: While the steak is resting, slice the ciabatta rolls in half and lightly toast them in the same skillet for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
- Assemble the Sandwich: Spread a generous amount of garlic aioli on the bottom half of each toasted ciabatta roll. Layer the sliced steak, followed by the arugula, tomato slices, and red onion.
- Finish and Serve: Cap each sandwich with the top half of the ciabatta roll, pressing down gently. Serve immediately while warm.
