Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Grill the Onions

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, salt, and pepper. Cook until the onions are caramelized, about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Au Jus

    In a saucepan, heat the beef broth over medium heat until simmering. This will be served as au jus.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On one slice of focaccia bread, layer the roast beef, grilled onions, and Swiss cheese. Top with the second slice of focaccia.

  4. 4

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Grill the sandwich for 3-4 minutes on each side or until the focaccia is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve with the warm au jus for dipping.
