Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/4 lbs skirt steak
  • 1 tsp kosher salt divided
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil divided
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 8 slices Swiss cheese
  • 4 oval sandwich rolls split

Method
 

  1. Cut the skirt steak into 4-inch sections, season it with 3/4 teaspoon salt and the black pepper, and let it stand for 10 minutes.
  2. Heat half the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the mushrooms with the remaining salt for 7 to 9 minutes until browned and dry.
  3. Stir the Worcestershire into the mushrooms for 30 seconds and transfer them to a plate.
  4. Add the remaining oil and sear the skirt steak for 2 to 3 minutes per side until it reaches 145°F.
  5. Rest the steak for at least 3 minutes, slice it thinly across the grain and combine it with the mushrooms.
  6. Divide the filling among the rolls, add two Swiss slices to each and broil for 1 to 2 minutes until melted.
