Steak Sandwich (with garlic aioli)
Description
This sandwich begins with skirt steak marinated in a mixture of brown sugar, balsamic vinegar, vegetable oil, salt, and pepper, which adds a balance of sweetness and tanginess. The steak is seared to medium-rare or desired doneness and thinly sliced against the grain for tenderness. Meanwhile, onions are slowly caramelized in butter to develop sweetness and depth.
The bread of choice is hoagie rolls brushed with melted butter and toasted until golden and crisp. A garlic aioli made with mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt provides a creamy and aromatic spread to complement the steak and vegetables.
Assembling the sandwich involves layering aioli, slices of provolone cheese, arugula, caramelized onions, and the sliced steak. The contrast between the savory steak, sweet onions, peppery arugula, and melty cheese gives this sandwich rich complexity ideal for a satisfying lunch or dinner.
