Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb. flank steak (cleaned)
1 French baguette (sliced into 1/4-inch pieces)
1/2-cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 Bermuda red onion
2 cups organic Arugula
6 cloves garlic (peeled)

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality beef steak. Look for a steak that is well-marbled, with a good amount of fat. This will help to keep the steak juicy and flavorful during cooking.
  • Make sure to slice the onions thinly. This will help them to cook evenly and will also allow them to caramelize nicely.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the onions. If you do, they will not cook evenly and will end up steaming instead of caramelizing.
  • Be patient when caramelizing the onions. It takes time to develop their full flavor and color. Don't rush the process or you will end up with bitter onions.
  • Season the steak and onions generously with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance their flavor.
