Ingredients
Units
Scale
For the Steak:
- 1 lb flank steak or ribeye, trimmed
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
For the Sandwich:
- 4 sandwich rolls or baguettes
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust to spice preference)
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tomato, sliced
- Lettuce or arugula, for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the Steak: Season both sides of the steak with salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and chili powder.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side (for medium-rare), or to your desired doneness.
- Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.
- Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and sriracha sauce. Stir until smooth.
- Assemble the Sandwiches: Slice the rolls or baguettes and spread a generous amount of the spicy sauce on both halves of each sandwich.
- Layer the sliced steak on the bottom half of the sandwich, followed by fresh cilantro, red onion, tomato slices, and a handful of lettuce or arugula.
- Top with the other half of the roll and serve immediately.
Notes
- You can grill the steak instead of pan-searing it for a smoky flavor.
- For an extra kick, add pickled jalapeños or roasted red peppers.
- To make it gluten-free, use gluten-free rolls or bread.
