This is a quick recipe I came up with because we were just craving a French dip style sandwich. The mushrooms could be left out, but they flavor the au jus so much I dont think I could ever leave them out! Ingredients:
2 cups mushrooms, sliced |
1 lb roast beef, sandwich meat (we used the thinly sliced deli style) |
1 loaf bakery italian bread (or any other style bread you choose) |
8 slices swiss cheese |
32 ounces beef broth, divided |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 teaspoon mccormick garlic and herb seasoning |
1/8 cup minced onion |
4 tablespoons worcestershire sauce |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute mushrooms in olive oil. While they are sauteeing, season with garlic, Mccormick's, salt, and pepper.
2. Add beef broth (reserve 1/2 a cup), worcestershire sauce, and onion.
3. In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup beef broth with cornstarch. Add to the mushroom mixture. Bring to a bowl, then reduce heat and let simmer about 5 minutes.
4. Add roast beef to mushroom au jus and cover, simmering about 10 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, cut your Italian bread into 8 slices. If not already split (sandwich style) go ahead and cut them, so you have 16 total slices of bread.
6. Place bread on cookie sheet. On 8 of the slices (bottom slice) place about 4 or 5 pieces of roast beef on each, then spread mushrooms evenly among each sandwich. Top each sandwich with a slice of swiss cheese.
7. Place sandwiches in oven and broil just until cheese is melted and bread is a bit toasted, about 5 minutes.
8. Serve sandwiches with a side of au jus to dip in!
