Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rib-eye

    Rub the rib-eye steak with olive oil and coat evenly with Cajun seasoning. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

  2. 2

    Blacken the Steak

    Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Once hot, add the rib-eye steak and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the steak reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Toast the Bread

    While the steak is resting, cut the po-boy bread in half and toast it lightly in the skillet until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of Cajun mayo on both sides of the toasted bread. Slice the rib-eye steak thinly and layer it on one side of the bread. Top with Swiss cheese, lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and pickles. Close the sandwich.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately. Enjoy your Blackened Rib-Eye Sandwich!
