Ingredients

• 4 pieces gluten-free baguette or rolls
• 4 pieces beef sirloin steaks
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter (or non-dairy alternative)

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the marinade: finely mince the garlic cloves and combine with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish.

Step 2

Place the beef sirloin steaks in the marinade, turning to coat well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for more flavor).

Step 3

Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 4

While the grill is heating, slice the gluten-free baguettes or rolls open, but not all the way through, to create a pocket. Lightly butter the insides and set aside.

Step 5

Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Brush each steak lightly with the remaining olive oil.

Step 6

Grill the steaks for about 3-4 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness, until cooked to your liking.

Step 7

Once grilled, allow the steaks to rest for a couple of minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.

Step 8

Toast the buttered sides of the gluten-free rolls on the grill for about 2 minutes, until golden and crispy.

Step 9

Place the sliced steak inside the toasted rolls, ensuring even distribution.

Step 10

Serve immediately, preferably with a side of salad or chips for a complete meal.
