NEXT-LEVEL STEAK & ONION SANDWICH

Steps:

• Remove the steak from the fridge and let it come to room temperature, then cover it with greaseproof paper and bash it with the base of a pan to tenderise and make it all roughly the same thickness.
• Meanwhile, peel the onions, also removing the first layer of flesh (reserve this for a soup or stew), then slice into 2cm-thick rounds.
• Put the butter, a lug of oil and the sugar into a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat. Once the butter has melted, place the onions into the pan in a single layer and cook for 5 minutes.
• Pour in the vinegar, pop the lid on, reduce the heat to low and cook for around 35 minutes, or until beautifully golden and caramelised on the bottom only, adding splashes of water to loosen, if needed.
• Meanwhile, pop the ciabatta into the oven, turn onto 110°C/225°F/gas ¼ and leave to warm through.
• Season the steak all over with sea salt and black pepper. Place a large non-stick heavy-bottomed pan on a high heat. Once screaming hot, drizzle the steak with olive oil, then put it into the pan and cook for 3 minutes on each side for medium, or to your liking.
• Remove to a plate, rest for 1 minute, then slice 1cm thick and toss through its own resting juices with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
• Cut the warm ciabatta in half and rub the inside of each piece in the steak resting juices. Spread on some mustard, if you like, then layer over the caramelised onions, the steak and pinches of watercress.
• Pop the other piece of bread on top, press down lightly, carve up into decent chunks and get involved.

• Heat remaining tablespoon oil in same skillet over high heat. Season steaks with salt and pepper. Cook 30 seconds on each side; remove. Add Worcestershire sauce and 2 tablespoons water to skillet, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon. Return onions to skillet; toss.

HANGER STEAK SANDWICH WITH BOURBON CREAMED SPINACH

Steps:

• For the glaze: Add the orange peel, bourbon, cherry juice and some black pepper to a small saucepan. Simmer until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Your pot may flambe from the bourbon, don't worry- just wait until the alcohol burns off. Once reduced, turn off the heat and whisk in the butter.
• Sprinkle the steak liberally with salt and pepper. Heat a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Add a light coat of oil and place the steak in the pan. Cook the steak almost to desired doneness, depending on thickness, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Turn off the heat and glaze the steak on all sides in the pan while flipping. Remove the steak from the pan to rest.
• For the sandwich build: Pile some Bourbon Creamed Spinach on the bottom piece of the pretzel roll. Thinly slice the steak against the grain and place on top of the spinach. Top with some red onions and finish with the top of the roll. Repeat for the remaining sandwiches.
• Strain the thawed spinach in a colander and squeeze liquid out with a towel. Melt the butter in a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions, season with salt and pepper and cook until onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add the bourbon. Stir to combine, turn heat back on to medium and simmer 1 minute. Add the cream, and cook until the cream is reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cheese and cook until melted, and then mix in the spinach to combine. Cover and cook over low heat until the spinach is tender, 8 to 10 minutes, and then season with salt and pepper.

HANGER-STEAK AND ONION SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high (if using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds). Alternatively, heat a grill pan over medium-high heat until hot.
• Season steaks with the salt and pepper. Grill, turning once, 7 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to a cutting board, and let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, grill tomato slices, turning once, until soft, about 4 minutes total.
• Heat oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 8 minutes.
• Cut steaks against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Spread each of the 4 baguette bottoms with 2 1/4 teaspoons hot mustard. Top with steak slices, tomatoes, onions, and the 4 baguette tops. Wrap sandwiches in waxed paper; refrigerate until ready to serve.

HANGER STEAK WITH GRILLED SALSA

Steps:

• Combine the mustard, paprika, chili powder, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Place steaks on a sheet tray and sprinkle all over with the spice mixture. Let sit at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat and place a cast-iron pan on one side of the grill.
• Drizzle the corn, jalapenos and onion with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on grill and grill, flipping frequently, until slightly caramelized and tender, about 12 to 15 minutes total. Let cool slightly, then roughly chop the onion and jalapeno and place in a large bowl. Cut the corn from the cob into the bowl. Add the tomatoes, garlic, cilantro, vinegar, lime juice and a drizzle of olive oil and toss well. Season to taste with salt, pepper and hot sauce. Let sit while the steaks grill.
• Drizzle the preheated cast-iron pan with canola oil. Cook the steaks, flipping only once, for about 12 minutes total for medium-rare or until an instant read thermometer registers 120 degrees F. Allow the meat to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Slice the meat against the grain to ensure tenderness, and garnish with the salsa.
