Ingredients:
- 1/2 lb leftover steak (or use however much you have leftover)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 1 large sweet onion
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil plus 1 tablespoon, divided
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar, optional
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, optional
- 2 ciabatta rolls
- 1-2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- Sliced cheese
Instruction:
- Slice leftover steak against the grain into thin strips. Allow steak to come to room temperature.
- Make the horseradish cream. Mix together ½ cup of sour cream with 2 tablespoons of prepared horseradish. Adjust the amounts to suit your tastes and according to the strength of the horseradish, which can vary greatly between brands.
- Meanwhile, make the caramelized onions. To do this, slice a large sweet onion into rings. Heat a skillet over moderate heat; add a tablespoon of oil. Add onion rings and a pinch of salt; saute slowly until golden brown and caramelized, about 45 minutes or so. Don’t turn up the heat! In fact, if your onions are browning too quickly, turn the heat to medium-low. I like to add a couple teaspoons of brown sugar at the start of cooking; it helps the onions to caramelize and makes them a bit sweeter. You can also try adding a healthy dose of your favorite hot sauce toward the end for an extra spicy treat!
- If you’re a mushroom lover, slice some mushrooms and saute over high heat in a small amount of oil (yes, high heat so they get nice and brown…that’s where all the best flavor is).
- Now make the garlic bread…that’s right, garlic bread. First, add a minced garlic clove (or two) to ¼ cup of extra virgin olive oil; let sit at room temp for at least thirty minutes. Next, take a couple of ciabatta rolls – don’t substitute here, trust me – and brush on your olive oil onto the cut parts of the rolls. Place rolls cut side up on a baking sheet and broil until golden brown.
- Top roll bottoms with sliced steak, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions and a slice of jack or provolone cheese. Place back under broiler until cheese is melted. Spread horseradish cream onto cut side of roll top and place on top of sandwich.
