Recipe By : Gourmet
Submitted by: Sandee Eveland
Serving Size : 4
1 cup thinly sliced onions
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
3/4 cup thinly sliced mushrooms
1 garlic clove -- minced
3/4 cup beef broth
1 1/2 tablespoons heavy cream
3 tablespoons ketchup
1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce -- or to taste
1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard
1 pound grilled steak -- cut into 1/8-inch thick slices
1 long loaf of Italian-style bread -- halved horizontally and each half buttered
lightly, cut into 4 pieces, toasted
In a skillet cook the onions in the butter and the oil over moderate
heat, stirring occasionally, until they are crisp and golden and
transfer them with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
In the fat remaining in the skillet cook the mushrooms and the garlic
over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms
begin to turn brown and transfer the mixture to a plate.
Add the broth to the skillet and deglaze the skillet, scraping up the
brown bits. Add the cream, the ketchup, the Worcestershire sauce, and
the mustard, cook a bit, and then stir in the mushroom mixture and the
steak slices.
Divide the steak mixture among the bottom bread pieces, sprinkle it with
some of the onions, and top the onions with the remaining bread pieces.
