Steves Supreme Steak Sandwich Food

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.

SUNNY'S GRILLED STEAK SUPREME

Steps:

• For the steak: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Season the steak generously on all sides with salt, pepper and either olive oil or canola oil. Add the steak to the grill and cook until it releases from the grill, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until desired doneness, another 3 to 4 minutes for 120 to 125 degrees F. Remove to a plate, sprinkle evenly with the Parmesan and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• For the topping: In a large pan on medium heat, add 2 tablespoons olive oil and the bacon. Cook, stirring, until the bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook until wilted and tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper, remove with a slotted spoon to a large bowl and add the reserved bacon to the bowl. If more oil is needed in the pan, add a tablespoon, then add the onions. Cook, without stirring, until the onions begin to char. Stir the onions and continue to cook until tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove to the bowl. Add a little oil to the pan, then add the bell peppers and Italian seasoning and stir to combine. Cook until slightly tender, 3 to 5 minutes, then remove to the bowl. Add the tomatoes and red chile flakes to the pan and cook until the tomatoes begin to burst, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the bowl as well. Toss the mixture together with the basil and serve on top of the sliced steak.
