Ingredients
- 16 ounce steak
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon pepper or to taste
- ½ French baguette
- 6 ounce blue cheese crumbled
- fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
- Season the steak with salt and pepper. Grill the steak for about 7 minutes per side, if you want medium rare, or longer if you like your steak done more. Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing it into thin slices.
- Cut the French baguette into ½ inch slices, about ½ French baguette. Place the bread on a baking sheet. Place the baking sheet under the broiler and toast for 1 to 2 minutes per side, watch them as they could burn quickly.
- Spread about a tbsp of blue cheese on each bread slice, then top with a couple of steak slices.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or chopped chives.
Notes
- If you don't like blue cheese, you can use something soft like brie, goat cheese or herbed cream cheese as a replacement.
- You can pan fry your steak if grilling isn't an option.
- Just be sure to keep the bread and the toppings separate till you're ready to serve, otherwise they'll get soggy and a little less than appetizing. These toppings will keep for up to 2 days if stored properly in an airtight container in the fridge. This recipe won't freeze well sadly so make these as you need them!
