Add these simple Steak Crostini to your menu. Quick and easy to prepare…they will melt in your mouth!
This recipe will make eighteen Steak Crostini.
From The Butcher you will need….Two Rib Eye Steaks
From the Baker you will need….One long loaf of French Bread; sliced into eighteen pieces and lightly toasted.
You will also need:
One recipe of Onion Jam (posted below)…or one jar of onion jam
Creme Fresh or Sour Cream
Fresh Dill
Fresh Ground Salt and Pepper
- One of these long French breads will make about 18 slices.
- Lightly toast the sliced bread on both sides.
- It took about 3-4 minutes per side at 375 degrees to lightly toast these slices of French bread.
- Place the bread on a cutting board or tray.
- Top with one tablespoon of Onion Jam ( the simple recipe is the next gallery. It can be made the day ahead).
- Spread the Onion Jam over the toast. You can prepare all of this about two hours ahead and cover with plastic. Let sit on the counter until ready to grill the steak and serve.
- I used Rib-Eye Steaks grilled over medium heat for a total of eight minutes. Any type of steak will work! Slice across the grain into 1/4 inch thick slices.
- Place steak on top of toasts.
- Top with a small dollop of creme fresh or sour cream, and a little sprig of fresh dill. Season gently, with fresh ground Salt and Pepper.
- Serve immediately ! They will be a hit!
You can use a prepared Onion Jam for these Crostini…but if you follow the directions below…you will make an unbelievably delicious Jam…I promise it is super simple!
- You will need four red onions;halved and sliced thin, three tablespoons of light brown sugar and three tablespoons of olive oil. Season with a little bit of fresh ground salt and pepper.
- Peel the onions, half them, and slice thin.
- Sauté the sliced onions with 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil, three tablespoons of brown sugar. Use a large sauté pan set over medium high heat.
- Stir the mixture every five minutes. Let it sauté for a total of 15-20 minutes. It will melt down into this delicious jam. Use immediately or refrigerate overnight. Bring to room temperature before serving.
