Steps:
- Leave the steaks on the counter, to take chill off, while the grill or grill pan heats up to medium-high. Coat the steaks with extra-virgin olive oil and grill seasoning.
- Heat 2 tablespoons, 2 turns of the pan, extra-virgin olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cubanelle peppers, the garlic and onions and cook until very tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add a splash of hot pepper juice and the hot pepper rings and remove from the heat.
- Heat oven to 250 degrees F.
- While the peppers cook, put the steaks on the hot grill and cook 10 minutes for rare, 2 minutes longer for each level of desired doneness, turning once about midway during the cook time. Meanwhile heat up a sauce pot over medium heat and add the butter. When the butter has melted, whisk in the flour and stir for 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg, to taste. Thicken the sauce for a couple of minutes, then reduce the heat to low.
- When the steaks are cooked to desired doneness, remove them to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice on an angle against the grain of the meat. While the meat rests, warm the bread in the oven. Stir the cheese into sauce.
- To serve, split the bread lengthwise and spread the steak slices evenly across the bottoms of the bread. Top the steak with the sauce and the peppers and onions. Cover with the bread tops and cut the ciabatta into 4 equal portions
GRILLED FLANK STEAK ON CIABATTA WITH RED PEPPERS
This steak sandwich, inspired by the flavors of Spain, takes a little time to prepare, but it's really quite simple. Just sauté a tangle of onions and red peppers until tender, then hit it with a splash of red wine and black olive tapenade. Meanwhile, rub the meat with a little olive oil and paprika then grill (or broil) until done. Pile the sliced meat and pepper mixture onto toasted ciabatta and enjoy.

Steps:
- Smear flank steak with 2 tablespoons olive oil, massage with paprika and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Combine 11/2 tablespoons of the tapenade with the parsley and 2 tablespoons of the oil. Set aside.
- Heat remaining oil in a large skillet. Add onion and sauté on medium until soft. Add garlic, sauté briefly, then add peppers. Reduce heat to low and sauté gently until very tender, about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally. Stir in wine and remaining tapenade, cook briefly, then remove from heat.
- Heat grill to hot. When peppers are done, put steak on grill and sear fairly close to the heat, 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Timing is tricky because it depends on the fire and the thickness of the meat, but you can make a diagonal cut at one end of the steak to gauge doneness.
- Transfer steak to a cutting board and place ciabatta halves, cut side down, on the grill to toast. Watch closely. Smear toasted ciabatta with the reserved tapenade and parsley from Step 1. Slice steak thin on the bias and arrange slices on the ciabatta. Reheat peppers and spoon on top of the steak. Cut each ciabatta half in six pieces, arrange on a platter and serve.
