Description

What’s your go-to sandwich for a hearty, satisfying meal—one that’s packed with flavor and texture? This Hanger Steak Sandwich features juicy steak, caramelized onions and peppers, and melted cheese, all tucked into a toasted ciabatta roll for a deliciously indulgent treat!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb hanger steak
  • 4 ciabatta rolls or hoagie buns
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon horseradish sauce (optional, for a kick)
  • 4 slices provolone or Swiss cheese
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh arugula or baby spinach (optional)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Steak:
    • Season the hanger steak with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 4-5 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let it rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
  • Cook the Onions and Peppers:
    • In the same skillet, add the sliced onions, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are soft and slightly caramelized. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Assemble the Sandwich:
    • Mix the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and horseradish sauce (if using) in a small bowl. Spread the sauce generously on the cut sides of the ciabatta rolls. Layer with sliced hanger steak, sautéed onions and peppers, and a slice of cheese.
  • Toast the Sandwich:
    • Preheat the broiler. Place the assembled sandwiches on a baking sheet and broil for 2-3 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Add Greens (Optional):
    • Top with fresh arugula or baby spinach for an extra layer of flavor and crunch.
  • Serve:
    • Serve the hanger steak sandwiches warm, and enjoy the perfect blend of savory steak, creamy sauce, and melted cheese!

Notes

For added depth of flavor, marinate the hanger steak in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs for a few hours before cooking. This sandwich pairs perfectly with a side of crispy fries or a fresh salad.
