steak sandwich with roasted garlic mayo & chimichurri

My favorite steak sandwich ever! Breakdown below!

Ingredients (Makes 2 steak sandwiches)

• Whichever crusty bread you prefer!

• Whichever cut of steak you prefer. I used a flank steak and cooked it in EVOO & butter until medium done, let it rest for 5 minutes and cut against the grain.

  Some steak tips below!

• generously, like generously season with kosher salt & fresh cracked pepper!

• my rule of thumb…3-4 minutes each side depending how thick your steak is. i do medium/medium high to get a good sear. i cook it in olive oil and unsalted butter. then baste it with more butter & garlic

• let your steak rest for 5 minutes. just set a timer and leave it aloneeeee. letting your steak rest allows the juices to redistribute through your steak so it’s nice and juicy

• cut your steak AGAINST the grain! cutting against the grain means cutting against the muscle which equals a tender af bite of your steak. if you cut with the grain it results in a chewy steak. Find the grain and cut the opposite way.

• •Medium or medium rare is the shit…no well done y’all🤗

  Roasted Garlic Mayo
