How Do You Make Steak Sandwiches?
- Marinate the steak – you can marinate it the day before. If you want to eat them for brunch or in a lunchbox.
- Prepare the vegetables – the easiest way is to buy a coleslaw mix to your liking and sliced tomato.
- Prepare steak – heat the skillet on high. Place the steaks in it. My steak is about 3/4″ thin. So I sear it on one side for 2 to 3 minutes. Fry the other side for 1 minute, then reduce the heat to medium-high and fry the steaks for 2 to 3 minutes. Fry the steaks until they’re cooked to the desired doneness. It took me about 5-7 minutes, turning the steaks 2 times until they were well done. Then cut them into strips.
- Assemble sandwich – Slice baguette lengthwise, spread mayonnaise on both sides of the bread. Put the steak slices, veggies, and tomato on top.
