Servings: 4 Sandwiches
Ingredients
- 1 AdapTable Meals Asian Grill Flank Steak
- 1 cucumber
- 2 carrots
- 1 daikon radish
- Bunch of cilantro
- 1 jalapeno
- 4 sandwich rolls
- Mayo
Pickling Liquid
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup rice wine vinegar
- 2 tsp sugar
- 2 pinches salt
Instructions
Grilled Steak
- Preheat 2 oven grates over high heat. Once preheated, lower the flame to medium-high and place the AdapTable Meals Asian Grill Flank Steak directly over the fire. Close the lid and cook for 5 minutes. Flip the steak and close the lid for another 3-4 minutes. Pull when the steak has reached your desired doneness to rest for about 10 minutes.
- Once the flank steak has rested, thinly slice against the grain. Set this aside covered until ready to assemble.
Quick Pickled Veggies
- While the grill is preheating, add all of the pickling liquid ingredients to a pan. Bring this mixture to a simmer over high heat.
- While the mixture is heating up, julienne the carrots and daikon radish. Throw them into a heat-safe bowl and pour over the pickling liquid.
- Periodically give this a mix while prepping the rest of the ingredients.
Sandwich Assembly
- Assemble the last of the ingredients by thinly slicing jalapeno and cucumber circles.
- One bread roll at a time, slice it horizontally keeping the two halves connected. Smear mayo on both sides of the bread. Pinch out some of the extra bread from each side. On the bottom half, lay cucumber slices evenly across and 1/4 of the sliced AdapTable Meals steak. On the top half, press in 1/4 cup of cilantro into the mayo. Next, lay as many jalapeno slices as desired and lastly, pile on some of the quick pickled veggies. Close the two halves together and enjoy!
