How to Make Budget Steak Sandwich With Roasted Tomatoes Arugula Aioli
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Roast tomatoes: Halve 1 lb heirloom or beefsteak tomatoes and toss with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until softened.
- Prepare the steak marinade: In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
- Marinate the steak: Add 1 lb skirt steak to the marinade and let it sit for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
- Caramelize the onions: While the steak marinates, thinly slice 1 large onion and sauté in 2 tbsp butter over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and caramelized. Set aside.
- Make the aioli: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup mayonnaise (store brand is fine!), 1/4 cup packed arugula leaves, 1 clove minced garlic, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Blend until smooth.
- Grill the steak and rolls: Grill the marinated steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Lightly toast the small ciabatta rolls (or your preferred rolls) on the grill as well.
- Assemble the sandwiches: Spread aioli on each roll. Layer the grilled steak, roasted tomatoes, caramelized onions, and 8 slices of Swiss cheese on the bottom half of the roll. Top with the other half of the roll.
- Serve immediately with oven-baked potato fries and your favorite side salad.
