For the Sandwich

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    In a bowl, mix the olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub this mixture over the shell steak and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated shell steak for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Slice the sandwich rolls and place a handful of fresh arugula or lettuce on the bottom half. Add the sliced shell steak and top with a slice of cheese. Place the other half of the roll on top.

  4. 4

    Melt the Cheese

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