Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds minute steak
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 1/2 cups giardiniera (pickled vegetables), plus 3 tablespoons brine from the jar
4 ciabatta rolls, split open
4 ounces sharp provolone, thinly sliced
Hot sauce, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, transfer to a large bowl and set aside.
  • Lightly pound the steak between 2 sheets of plastic wrap until about 1/8 inch thick. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak in batches and cook until browned, about 30 seconds per side; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the steak to the bowl with the onion and garlic. Add the parsley and giardiniera brine and toss to coat. Drizzle the cut sides of the rolls with olive oil. Pile the steak and onion mixture on the roll bottoms and top with the giardiniera and provolone. Cover with the roll tops. Serve with hot sauce, if desired.

  • Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the steak and lock in the juices. Cook the steak for a few minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
  • Slice the steak against the grain: This will make the steak more tender and easier to chew.
  • Serve the steak sandwich on a toasted bun with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include grilled onions, peppers, mushrooms, and cheese.
