Steak Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Onions

    In the same skillet with bacon grease, add sliced onions and sauté until caramelized, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Steak

    Season the ribeye steak with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in the skillet over high heat.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak

    Add the steak to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest.

  5. 5

    Slice the Steak

    After resting, slice the steak thinly against the grain.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise on the submarine rolls. Layer with lettuce, sliced steak, caramelized onions, crispy bacon, tomato slices, and cheddar cheese.

  7. 7

    Melt the Cheese

    If desired, place the assembled sandwiches under a broiler for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
