Bon Appetit Magazine, September 2009 edition and it was tested by the Bon Appetit Test Kitchen. The say this incredible sandwich is so filling that you won't need a side dish. Maybe a nice cold glass of wine, or beer or whatever suits your fancy. ;) Ingredients:
2/3 cup mayonnaise (i used weight watchers light) |
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil |
1 small garlic clove, pressed |
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes, to taste |
1 lb loaf ciabatta, halved horizontally |
2 ears corn, husked |
2 small red bell peppers, quartered lengthwise |
1 large red onion, cut into 1/3-inch rounds |
1 1/2 lbs skirt steaks, cut crosswise into 6-inch pieces |
olive oil (for brushing) |
Directions:
1. Prepare barbecue (high heat).
2. Whisk first 6 ingredients in medium bowl (starting with the mayo through the red pepper flakes) & set aside.
3. Pull out some of inside of bread, forming thick shells.
4. Brush corn, peppers, onion, cut sides of bread, and steaks with olive oil & sprinkle with salt and pepper.
5. Grill vegetables until charred and just tender and steaks until charred and cooked to medium-rare, about 15 minutes for corn, 8 to 10 minutes for peppers, and 5 to 8 minutes for onion, turning occasionally, and 3 minutes per side for steaks.
6. Let steaks rest 5 minutes.
7. Grill bread, cut side down, until charred, about 2 to 3 minutes.
8. Cut corn from cobs; add 1 cup to bowl with mayonnaise mixture and stir to coat; season to taste with salt and pepper.
9. Cut steaks diagonally against the grain into 1/3- to 1/2-inch-thick strips.
10. Arrange steak slices, peppers, and onion over bottom halves of bread.
11. Spoon corn mayonnaise over.
