Step-by-Step Instructions for Marry Me Steak Sandwich
  1. Remove the New York strip steak from the refrigerator and let it reach room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add oil and sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce heat and add sliced onions with a pinch of salt. Cook for 10-15 minutes until golden brown, then stir in balsamic glaze for 2-3 more minutes.
  4. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice ciabatta in half and bake cut sides up for 5-7 minutes until golden and crispy.
  5. Spread lemon herb aioli on both halves of toasted ciabatta. Layer arugula, steak, and caramelized onions. Drizzle with more balsamic glaze and close the sandwich.
  6. Slice the assembled sandwich in half and serve warm, ideally with fries or a fresh salad.
