🛒 Ingredients:
For the Steak & Filling:
- 🥩 1 lb ribeye steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
- 🧂 1 tsp salt
- 🌿 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 🧄 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 🧅 1 small onion, sliced
- 🌶️ 1/2 cup bell peppers, sliced (optional)
- 🧈 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
For the Garlic Toast:
- 🍞 4 slices of thick bread (Texas toast, French bread, or ciabatta)
- 🧈 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 🧄 1 tsp garlic powder
- 🌿 1 tbsp parsley, chopped (optional)
For the Cheese:
- 🧀 1 cup shredded mozzarella or provolone
- 🧀 1/2 cup shredded cheddar (optional, for extra flavor)
🔥 Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the Steak:
- Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the thinly sliced steak with salt and black pepper. Add the steak to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.
- Add the minced garlic, onions, and bell peppers (if using). Sauté until the veggies are soft and the steak is cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
2️⃣ Make the Garlic Toast:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix the softened butter with garlic powder and parsley. Spread the garlic butter generously on one side of each bread slice.
- Place the bread on a baking sheet, garlic side up, and bake for 5 minutes until lightly toasted.
3️⃣ Assemble the Toast:
- Remove the bread from the oven. Pile the cooked steak and veggie mixture evenly onto each slice.
- Top with shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
4️⃣ Melt the Cheese:
- Place the baking sheet back in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. For a golden finish, broil for 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye on it.
5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy:
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve hot with a side salad, fries, or just as is for a satisfying meal! 🍴
