Ingredients

Scale

Herb Butter

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed

Steak Sandwich

  • 1 tbsp oil (vegetable or olive oil)
  • 1 lb steak (such as sirloin or ribeye)
  • 1 tbsp salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1 large yellow onion, sliced into half rings
  • 4 slices Havarti cheese
  • 1 baguette

Instructions

  1. Prepare Herb Butter: In a bowl, combine softened butter with crushed garlic and diced fresh dill. Mix until well incorporated and smooth. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.
  2. Slice the Steak: Slightly freeze the steak for about 15 minutes to firm it up, then slice it thinly into strips. This helps achieve evenly thin pieces for quick cooking.
  3. Cook the Steak: Heat oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the steak strips, season generously with salt, and cook until just golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Sauté Onions: Using the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook over medium heat until they become soft and golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat.
  5. Prepare the Baguette: Slice the baguette lengthwise. Spread the herb butter evenly on both inner sides of the bread.
  6. Assemble the Sandwich: Layer the cooked steak strips evenly on one side of the buttered baguette, then add the sautéed onions on top. Place the slices of Havarti cheese over the onions.
  7. Broil the Sandwich: Keep the sandwich open-faced and place it under a broiler for about 2 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and melted.
  8. Serve: Remove from the broiler and serve immediately while warm for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Freezing the steak slightly makes slicing easier and prevents uneven cuts.
  • You can substitute Havarti cheese with provolone or mozzarella if preferred.
  • For a spicier kick, add sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.
  • If you prefer, lightly toast the baguette before assembling for extra crunch.
  • Adjust salt to taste, especially if your cheese is salted.
