Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz ribeye steak
- 2 slices artisan sourdough or ciabatta bread
- 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 2 tbsp garlic butter (1 tbsp butter + 1 clove minced garlic)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Season the ribeye steak generously with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. Remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain.
- Spread garlic butter on one side of each slice of bread. Place one slice butter-side down in the skillet, layer on sliced steak and cheddar cheese, then top with another slice of bread (butter-side up).
- Grill until golden brown on one side (about 3-4 minutes), then carefully flip and grill until the cheese melts and both sides are crispy.
- Serve immediately while warm.
