Open Faced Steak Sandwich image

This was one of my luncheon favorites during my working days, and that I would indulge in once or twice a week. most restaurants offer it. Enjoy it yet today.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 to 4 oz steak your choice
1 or 2 slice toasted bread your choice un-buttered i prefer rye
dash(es) salt and pepper
bit of butter and olive oil to fry
1/2 tsp gravy master or kitchen boquet to char if desired
GARNISH
1 or 2 leaf of lettuce
2 slice tomato
4 or 5 slice dill pickle
SIDES
order of fries and cole slaw on the side

Steps:

  • 1. In frying pan heat butter and oil. Lightly salt and pepper both sides of steak. Fry steak to desired level. 3 to 4 minutes a side over high heat. I prefer medium rare. Nice pink center. In second pan with 1/2" Vegetable oil cook Fries till golden brown, add a little salt after plating.
  • 2. If you like a little char, add 1/2 teaspoon of Gravy Master or Kitchen Bouquet atop stake half way through cooking. Turn steak a couple of times and move around pan to char both sides. The sugar in these products burn and char nicely. I prefer the char. They will mess the pan a little, but most pans today clean up easily. Also splatters a little but worth it to me.
  • 3. Meanwhile toast bread of choice. Place steak on toasted bread, don't cover leave open faced.
  • 4. Garnish with a slice of Lettuce, a couple slices of Tomato and some Dill Pickle slices. Provide Fries and Slaw or choice on the side, such as Cottage Cheeses or Potato Salad. I like fries with mine, and I like to dip my fries in A-1 Sauce. Got a crowd make more. Enjoy
  • 5. Note: These were "Filet Mignon" from "Omaha Steaks". I didn't add anything to the steak but a little salt and pepper. Then threw them into a very hot pan for 5 1/2 minutes.
