Broiled Steak Sandwiches With Balsamic Vegetables
- 1 pound strip steak
- Kosher salt and pepper
- 4 Roma (plum) tomatoes, halved
- 1 medium red onion, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rings
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 4 pieces focaccia or French bread, cut in half
- 3 ounces blue cheese
- Heat broiler.
- Season the steak with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place the steak on one half of the baking sheet.
- Toss the tomatoes and onion in a medium bowl with the oil, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place the onion and tomatoes, cut-side down, on the other half of the baking sheet.
- Broil the steak and vegetables, turning everything once, until the steak reaches the desired doneness, 4 minutes per side for medium rare. Remove the steak and return the vegetables to oven until browned, about 1 minute more.
- Slice the steak. Place the bottom halves of the bread cut-side up and top with the steak, onions, tomatoes, and cheese. Sandwich with the remaining bread. Serve warm.
- If blue cheese is too strong for your taste, try topping this sandwich with a creamy goat cheese. Or play off the tartness of the balsamic vinegar with slivers of salty Parmesan or Manchego.
