Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons Buttery Spread
  • 2 cups Onion sliced
  • ⅔ cup Half and Half
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
  • 3 ounces Gorgonzolla Cheese Crumbles
  • 6 3-ounce each Ciabatta Rolls (84g) split
  • 1½ pounds Beef Flank Steak
  • 1 tablespoon Grapeseed Oil
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 2 cups Baby Spinach

Instructions
 

  • Heat the buttery spread in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions. Cook and stir occasionally, until onions are soft and caramelized; about 15-20 minutes. Add 1 or 2 tablespoons of water to the skillet and scrap the bottom of pan. After all bits are scraped up, transfer onions to a bowl. Set aside.
  • Heat same skillet over medium heat. Stir in half and half and Worcestershire sauce. Cook and stir as needed for 4-5 minutes, or until reduced and slightly thickened. Remove from heat. Stir in the cheese and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, toast or broil the rolls until golden. If broiling: Lightly coat cut side of rolls with spray on butter and broil 1-2 minutes.
  • Cut the steak in half lengthwise. Rub with the oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet (cast-iron works the best) over medium-high heat. Add the steak to hot skillet. Cook 4-5 minutes per side, for medium rare (135℉). Transfer steak to a cutting board and let rest 5-10 minutes. Slice the meat against the grain. Thin slices work best for assembling the sandwich.
  • Assemble the sandwiches in the following order:
    Bottom roll, spinach (as much or little as you want), steak (just under 3 ounces), cheese sauce (1-2 tablespoons), onions (divided between 6 sandwiches), top roll.
