Today's Menu: Steak and Cheese Hogies w/ Baked Fries
Slice and Sautee the Onions and Mushrooms, set aside. Remove the steak from the pan to a cutting board. Slice the steak thinly and toss the slices in the Worcestershire sauce mixture.Pre heat your oven to Broiler. I used Aunt Millie's Whole Grain Deli Style Mini Sub Buns for the bread. Spread the buns open and arrange on a baking sheet.Top each bun with a slice of the Muenster Cheese and put them under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 1 to 2 minutes. In a small bowl, whisk together Greek Yogurt, Mayonnaise and Hot Sauce. Spread the mayonnaise onto the bottom of each bun. Put the slices of the beef onto each of the roll and top with the mushroom slices, onions, and roasted sweet red peppers. What a sandwich! The Steak and all the toppings make one fine dinner. I left the complete recipe at the end of the post.
I also baked some Alexia Shoestring Fries for a side. For dessert later a Jello Sugar Free Chocolate pudding topped with Cool Whip Free.
Steak and Cheese Hoagies
Ingredients
1 1/2 pound London Broil
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and freshly Ground Black Peppercorn
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon Soy Sauce
1 tablespoon French’s Spicy Brown Mustard
1 teaspoon chopped Rosemary leaves
1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
Aunt Millie Whole Grain Deli Mini Sub Buns
Sargento’s Muenster Cheese Slices, 1 slice per sandwich
1/2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Kraft Reduced Fat Mayonnaise w/ Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Frank’s Hot Sauce
5 Large Portabella Mushrooms, sliced and sauteed.
2 Onions, sliced and sauteed
1 jar Roasted Sweet Peppers
Directions
1 Remove steak from refrigerator 2 hours before cooking to bring to room temperature (only do this with whole cuts of meat, never with ground meat.) Add sea salt and freshly ground pepper.
2 Heat a large skillet to medium high heat. Place the beef in the skillet and let it cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, check before flipping to make sure it has nicely browned. At this point, if you have a steak only an inch thick or less, you can take the skillet off the heat and just let the steak sit for several minutes in the skillet, which will retain enough heat to cook the steak to medium rare. You can test for doneness by using a small sharp knife and cutting into the center to check the color. Also, if the steak is brown on both sides and it is weeping red juice.
* If you have a thicker steak, you can finish it off in the oven, at 325°F for 15 minutes or so. Use a meat thermometer to test the internal temperature of the steak. It will be done at 130°F for medium rare. If you are using the oven method, when done, remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes.
3 While the Steak is frying, in a medium bowl whisk together the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, mustard, rosemary, and red pepper flakes. Set aside. Slice and Sautee Mushrooms and set aside. Pre heat your oven to the broiler setting, to heat buns up.
4 Remove the steak from the pan to a cutting board. Slice the steak thinly and toss the slices in the Worcestershire sauce mixture.
5 Spread the buns open and arrange on a baking sheet.Top each bun with a slice of the cheese and put them under the broiler until the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 1 to 2 minutes.
6 In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and hot sauce. Spread the mayonnaise onto the bottom of each bun. Put the slices of the beef onto each of the roll and top with the mushroom slices, onions, roasted sweet peppers.
