Ingredients

1 ½ lbs leftover prime rib or other steak (about 4-6 oz per person)
1 white onion sliced
8 slices provolone cheese
2 cups arugula or other crunchy green, lightly packed
1 large baguette

For the Horseradish Cream Sauce

¾ cup sour cream
3 tablespoons horseradish
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoon fresh chives finely chopped

Instructions

For the Prime Rib Sandwiches:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
To make the caramelized onions: heat up a large pan on the stovetop to medium heat then add 2 tablespoons olive oil and the sliced onions. Stir occasionally until the onions are soft, golden/starting to brown, and sweet to the taste (roughly 30-40 minutes). Remove from heat. *You may need to adjust the heat and turn it down if they are browning too fast.
In the meantime, place your leftover prime rib in a large cast iron (or oven proof) pan and place in the oven to heat up (approx 15 - 20 minutes). Remove from oven and slice into thin slices.
To build your sandwiches: cut the baguette into 4 equal size pieces and cut in half, lengthwise. Place on a baking sheet, open faced, and place two pieces of cheese on bottom half of each sandwich.
Place under the broiler for a couple minutes to melt the cheese (paying close attention to not burn the bread).
Once the cheese is melted, remove from the oven and build each sandwich: add 3-4 slices of the warm steak, a small handful of arugula, and a couple tablespoons of caramelized onions, then top with 1-2 tablespoons of creamy horseradish sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy the heck out of these epic sandwiches.

For the Horseradish Cream Sauce

Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix together.

Notes

If your steak is already sliced up you can just warm it up on the stovetop on on a small skillet. Alternatively you can add the thin steak slices on top of the provolone just before placing into the oven to broil and melt the cheese.
