Prego Roll image

On the streets of Lisbon and outside any nightclub or bar in Johannesburg, you'll find vendors grilling steak and slathering garlic butter on a soft bun-heaven. The key to this mouth-watering street food is finding a soft, airy roll to absorb the steak juices. If there is a Portuguese market near you, you're in luck! If not, look for a soft roll dusted with flour at your local bakery.

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 13

For the garlic butter:
6 garlic cloves
1 tablespoon packed flat-leaf parsley leaves
Pinch of kosher salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
For the sandwich:
1 pound skirt steak, trimmed of excess fat
5 garlic cloves
8 to 10 parsley sprigs
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
4 Portuguese rolls
1/2 cup garlic butter

Steps:

  • For the garlic butter:
  • Mince the garlic and finely chop the parsley leaves. Mix the garlic, parsley, and salt into the butter until very well combined. This will keep, refrigerated, for up to 2 weeks.
  • For the sandwich:
  • Cut the steak into 4 equal portions. Smash the garlic cloves using the side of your knife. Pick the parsley leaves and coarsely chop them; set aside. In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, olive oil, and smashed garlic. Pour over the steak, cover, and marinate for 1 hour or up to 12 hours.
  • In a very hot cast-iron skillet, sear each side of the steak, cooking to your preference. (Skirt steak cooks very quickly; for medium, cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.) Transfer to a plate when finished. While the meat is resting, wipe out the skillet and set it over low heat.
  • Cut each roll in half and liberally butter each side with garlic butter. Toast the rolls, cut side down, until golden brown in color.
  • On a cutting board slice the steaks across the grain (lengthwise) into 1-inch strips or pieces. Lay the meat on a roll and top with chopped parsley.

I'll have to see if I can find Prego sauce at my local grocery store.

I followed the recipe exactly and the rolls turned out terrible. I don't know what went wrong.

These rolls were a bit dry. I think I didn't add enough butter to the dough.

The filling was a little bland for me. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

These rolls were a little too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them instead of frying them next time.
