Ingredients

• 450 grams Ribeye steak (or any tender steak)
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 Large yellow onion
• 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.33 cup Buttermilk
• 4 Bread rolls (baguettes or hoagie rolls)
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 4 slices Cheddar cheese (optional)
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 cups Oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

Season the ribeye steak with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare or longer if preferred. Remove the steak from the pan, let it rest for 10 minutes, and slice thinly against the grain.

Step 3

While the steak rests, cut the onion into thin rings. Dip the onion rings into buttermilk, then dredge them in all-purpose flour, shaking off excess.

Step 4

Heat 2 cups of oil in a large skillet or pot to 175°C (350°F). Fry the onion rings in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels and set aside.

Step 5

Toast the bread rolls by spreading butter on the cut sides and warming them in a skillet or under a broiler until golden.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise with Dijon mustard to create a spread.

Step 7

Assemble the sandwiches: spread the mayonnaise-Dijon mixture on the cut sides of the toasted bread rolls. Layer with sliced steak, a slice of cheese (if using), and crispy onions.

Step 8

Serve immediately while warm, optionally with a side of your favorite chips or salad.
