By á-170456

Ingredients

• MARINATED STEAK:
• 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
• 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 1/2 pounds sirloin, 1" thick (or top round or flank steak)
• ONION RINGS:
• 4 medium red onions peeled, and cut into 1/4"-thick rings
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt to taste
• Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
• SANDWICHES:
• 12 slices rye bread
• Mayonnaise or mustard
• Boston or Bibb lettuce coarsely shredded

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the vinegar and soy sauce in a small bowl. Whisk in the olive oil. Place the steak in a large glass or ceramic baking dish and pour the marinade over it. Cover and refrigerate for up to 3 hours, or overnight. Turn steak occasionally.

Prepare a gas or charcoal grill.

Grill steak over medium-hot coals for 4 to 5 minutes to a side for rare; 6 to 7 minutes for medium. Baste with the marinade during grilling. Remove steak to a cutting board and thinly slice on the diagonal. Cover the meat and refrigerate to chill.

To prepare the onion rings, pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Place sliced onions in a roasting pan. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and salt and pepper. Roast the onions until fork-tender, about 1 hour.

To assemble the sandwiches, generously spread the bread with the mayonnaise or mustard. Divide the sliced steak between 6 of the bread slices and cover it with the roasted onion rings. Top with the shredded lettuce and the remaining bread and cut the sandwiches in half.

This recipe yields 6 sandwiches.
