🥪 Transform your holiday leftovers into gourmet sandwiches that come together in just 20 minutes for a satisfying meal
🍖 Enjoy restaurant-quality flavor at home with this perfect combination of tender prime rib and sweet caramelized onions

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 sandwiches 1x

Ingredients

Scale

2 tablespoons butter for caramelizing the onions

2 large thinly sliced yellow onions to add sweetness and depth

2 tablespoons mayonnaise as the base for the spread

1 teaspoon creamy horseradish for a tangy kick in the spread

16 cloves roasted garlic to mix into the spread for extra flavor

2 cups arugula dressed for a fresh, slightly bitter crunch

1 teaspoon olive oil to dress the arugula

1 teaspoon white balsamic vinegar or lemon juice for a light acidity in the arugula dressing

8 slices sourdough or large baguette as the sturdy bread base

12 ounces thinly sliced prime rib the tender, flavorful protein centerpiece

Instructions

1-Start by slicing your leftover prime rib thinly to keep its tender texture without reheating, which could make it tough.

2-First, gather all ingredients and set up your workspace. Thinly slice the 12 ounces of prime rib and caramelize the 2 large thinly sliced yellow onions in 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Cook them gradually with minimal stirring until they turn a dark caramel color, which takes about 15 minutes total prep time.

3-Next, prepare the spread by combining 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise with 1 teaspoon of creamy horseradish and mixing in the 16 cloves of roasted garlic, either whole or mashed. For the arugula, toss 2 cups with 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of white balsamic vinegar or lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper.

4-Once everything is ready, assemble by spreading the horseradish mayo on 8 slices of sourdough or baguette. Layer the dressed arugula, prime rib slices, and caramelized onions on top. The sandwich is served cold, allowing flavors to meld without extra cooking.

5-Slice the prime rib thinly for tenderness.

6-Cook onions slowly for that perfect caramelization.

7-Mix the spread to add depth of flavor.

8-Toss arugula for a fresh contrast.

9-Layer ingredients evenly on the bread.

Notes

🔪 Slice the prime rib thinly while it’s still cold for the best texture and to prevent the meat from falling apart

🌿 Fresh arugula adds a peppery crunch that cuts through the richness and provides a fresh contrast to the savory ingredients
