French Steak Sandwich
Seared sirloin steak sliced thin and piled onto a toasted baguette with melted Gruyere, caramelized onions, and a smear of Dijon mustard. Finished with parsley, the sandwich balances rich beefy juices against sweet onion and sharp cheese, echoing bistro steak-frites in handheld form.
