Instructions
- Caramelize the Onions: In a pan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and let them get brown on the bottom before turning. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until they become soft and caramelized. This process can take 20-30 minutes. Season with a pinch of sugar (optional), salt, and pepper to enhance the caramelization process. Stir occasionally.
- Prepare the Horseradish Sauce: In a small bowl, mix horseradish sauce and mayonnaise. Adjust the ratio to your preferred level of spiciness. Set aside.
- Toss the Salad: In a small bowl, toss the arugula with the olive oil and lemon juice until well coated. Set aside.
Assemble the Sandwich:
- Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Alternatively, you can use a toaster or oven to toast the bread. Butter one side of each slice of bread.
- Spread the horseradish-mayo sauce on the unbuttered side of one slice of bread.
- Layer the thinly sliced prime rib and provolone or Swiss cheese on top (if using).
- On the other slice of bread, spread the caramelized onions.
- Put the two slices of bread together with the spreads and fillings inside.
- Cut the sandwich in half, and serve it with your favorite sides like coleslaw, pickles, or potato chips.
Serve with Optional Au Jus:
- In a small saucepan, heat the reserved juices from the cooked prime rib. If needed, add a bit of beef broth to adjust the consistency. Season the au jus with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the sandwich with a side of the optional au jus for dipping.
Notes
- Choose the Right Bread: Select a sturdy bread like a baguette or ciabatta that can hold up to the juicy meat and toppings.
- Balance Flavors: Consider the balance of flavors and textures in your sandwich. Sweet, tangy, creamy, and crunchy elements can all enhance the experience.
- Layering Matters: Arrange the ingredients thoughtfully. Place condiments and spreads on the bread’s interior to prevent sogginess, and evenly distribute the prime rib, cheese, and vegetables for each bite.
- Sauce Placement: If using au jus or another sauce, consider dipping it on the side to prevent the bread from getting too soggy.
- Toast the Bread: Toasting the bread adds a delightful crunch and helps keep it from becoming overly soft from the sandwich fillings.
