Ingredients

  • 1 lb beef steak (such as sirloin or flank)
  • 4 sandwich rolls
  • 2 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 lime
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Season the 1 lb steak with 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the steak and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, until browned and internal temperature reaches 135°F. Transfer to a cutting board and rest for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    While the steak rests, in a bowl combine 2 cups shredded cabbage, 3 tbsp mayonnaise, and the juice of 1 lime. Toss well and season with a pinch of salt.

  4. 4

    Slice the rested steak thinly against the grain.

  5. 5

    Split the 4 sandwich rolls and toast them in the same skillet over medium heat until golden, about 1-2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Divide the sliced meat among the rolls, then top with the cabbage slaw. Serve immediately.
