Ingredients
Scale
Main Proteins:
- 1 pound (454 grams) steak
- 4 slices havarti cheese
Aromatic Vegetables:
- 1 large yellow onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, diced
Cooking Ingredients:
- ½ cup (120 milliliters) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) oil
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) salt, adjust to taste
- 1 baguette
Instructions
- Craft the herb-infused butter by combining softened butter, crushed garlic, and finely chopped dill in a mixing bowl. Blend until thoroughly integrated and set aside at room temperature.
- Transform the steak into delicate, uniform strips using a sharp chef’s knife, ensuring each slice measures approximately 1/4 inch (0.6 centimeters) thick.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet until it reaches a high temperature. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil across the surface and generously season the steak strips with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Carefully place the seasoned steak strips into the sizzling skillet, allowing them to cook for 2-3 minutes on each side. The goal is achieving a golden-brown exterior while maintaining a succulent interior. Transfer the cooked steak to a resting plate.
- Utilize the same skillet to caramelize the onions, allowing the residual meat flavors to enhance their natural sweetness. Sauté the half-ring onion slices over medium heat for 6-8 minutes until they develop a rich, golden-brown color.
- Slice the baguette horizontally, creating a canvas for the sandwich. Generously spread the herb butter across both interior surfaces, ensuring complete coverage.
- Assemble the sandwich by layering the seared steak strips, caramelized onions, and 4 slices of Havarti cheese. For a melted cheese experience, place the constructed sandwich in an oven preheated to 350°F (175°C) for 4-5 minutes until the cheese becomes wonderfully gooey.
