Mediterranean Steak Sandwiches Recipes

ULTIMATE STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Split the rolls open and toast them on a baking sheet in the oven while it is preheating. Mix together the mayonnaise, garlic, and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to use. Remove the rolls from the oven when toasted as desired.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the sliced steak and onions in the pan and season with sea salt, Worcestershire sauce, and liquid smoke. Cook and stir until the steak is browned and the onion is tender, about 10 minutes.
• Generously spread the prepared garlic-Parmesan mayonnaise on both halves of the toasted rolls. Divide the steak and onion mixture evenly among the bottom halves of the rolls, piling them high. Top each with 2 slices provolone cheese and sprinkle with Italian seasoning. Place the tops on the sandwiches.
• Bake the sandwiches on a baking sheet in the preheated oven until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

MEDITERRANEAN FLAT BREAD STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Steak Marinade -- I make it simple - just use a large baggie and mix all the ingredients, vinegar, oregano, lemon juice, olive oil, red pepper flakes and the onion. Mix well and then add the steak. The longer the marinating time the better. I love to let it marinate all day. I make it before I go to work and then cook it when I get home. You need at least 3-4 hours to get a good flavor but all day gives it great flavor.
• Dressing -- Simply mix the mayonnaise, roasted red peppers and basil and set to the side in a small bowl and refrigerate. Make this ahead.
• Steak -- Now the steak is ready to grill, but remember -- room temperature Never grill cold meat. Set it on the counter to take the chill off as your prepare the tomato relish. This steak can be done on a outside grill which is ideal. Or you can use your inside grill pan which I use quite often. You can also use a cast iron or saute pan if you don't have the other options. I suppose a George Foreman type of grill would work too. So lightly oil your cooking utensil and heat to medium high.
• Relish -- As the steak is coming to room temp and the grill is heating up, chop up your vegetables (tomatoes, onions and artichokes) and add the pre chopped olives and mix them all together in a small bowl with the salt and pepper. NOTE: I only use 8 oz of the artichokes so I don't drain the whole can, only those which I am using. A little oil from the artichokes in the can is all it needs to flavor the relish. I just add 1/2 teaspoon or so which gives the relish a good flavor. And make sure to go easy on the salt as olives are quite salty.
• Grilling -- Just grill your steak on medium high heat. It should only take 4-5 minutes per side at the most. I like mine to medium rare, but you can cook it to whatever temperature you like. Medium rare -- remove and 125, cover and let set 4-5 minute as you prepare the flat breads. Now mine, since store bought, I just drizzle on some olive oil and a little oregano and brush on each side of the flatbread and grill on the same pan as my steaks for just a minute to warm up. If making your own, follow your recipe, again brushing with the olive oil and oregano as they grill.
• Finish -- Lay out the flat bread and spread with the roasted red pepper, basil and mayonnaise. Then top with slices of the skirt steak (remember to always slice against the grain for tender steak) on one side of the bread, then top with a few spoons of the tomato relish and some fresh spinach. Fold over and secure with a tooth pick. ENJOY!
• This is a hearty sandwich, so I try to stay away from serving it with fries or onions rings, although you could. But I would rather serve with some oven baked zucchini planks with a light dip, a fruit salad, or a bowl of soup to start. One of my favorites is a beer cheese soup or roasted cauliflower soup.

TIKTOK GRINDER SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place ciabatta cut side-up on a baking sheet and layer one piece of the bread with slices of provolone and the other with mozzarella.
• Bake on the top rack of the preheated oven until the cheese melts, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven and increase the temperature to broil.
• Layer both sides of the sandwich with folded slices of ham, then alternate between the two sides with a layer of salami, coppa ham, prosciutto, and pepperoni. Broil in the oven until the meats crisp up, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir mayonnaise, minced garlic, red wine vinegar, oregano, red pepper flakes, pepperoncini peppers, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Add the lettuce, red onion, and black olives, and toss to combine.
• Thinly slice the tomato and salt on each side.
• On one side of the sandwich, layer the tomato slices. Pile a large portion of the lettuce salad on top, then top with grated Parmesan cheese. Carefully fold the two bread slices together to form the sandwich. Cut into 4 triangular portions and serve immediately.

EASY STEAK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion; cook and stir until tender. Push onion to the side of the pan, and add the mushrooms. Cook and stir until softened, then add the bell pepper and cook just until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, and set aside.
• Add the remaining butter to the skillet. No need to clean the pan, just let it heat up a little bit. Place the steak in the skillet along with the pickled peppers. Season with salt and pepper. The steak cooks really fast, just a couple of minutes. Once the steak is mostly browned, return the onion and pepper to the pan. Cook until heated through.
• Turn off the heat, and place the slices of cheese over the top of the pile so they can melt. Scoop the whole pile into the awaiting bread, making sure to pour some of the juices onto that wonderful sandwich.
