From Cooking Thin with Chef Kathleen by Kathleen Daelemans. This is DH's favorite summer recipe, little does he know it's good for him. Make extra, the leftovers are great for a take to work lunch.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Sprinkle steak with salt and pepper on both sides. Place in a sealable plastic bag. Add lime juice and olive oil. Seal bag. Shake and turn until lime juice and olive oil are evenly distributed. Place in refrigerator for 1/2 hour.
  2. 2
    In a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat, heat 1 TBS of marinade from the bag with the steak. Add steak to pan and saute until medium rare, 5-7 min per side. You may add extra marinade if necessary.
  3. 3
    Remove steak from pan and let rest on cutting board for 10 minute.
  4. 4
    Add onions to pan with any remaining marinade. Saute until onions are soft and translucent, 8-10 minutes.
  5. 5
    Cut steak into thin slices across the grain. Place 1 tomato slice on each bun bottom. Lay 5 to 7 thin slices of steak (3 oz per person) over each tomato slice. Top each sandwich with onions and 2 tsp salsa verde and a bun top. Serve immediately.

Fabulous! DH LOVED this. I used a focaccia loaf from Panera and cut it into quarters. My favorite part were the onions, oh my! I think I will make extra marinade and use an extra onion next time. I really could eat the onions all by themselves.
