Ingredients
1 cup Marsala wine¼ cup olive oilJuice and zest of 1 lemon3 cloves garlic, crushed1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves1 tbsp dried parsley1 tsp mustard powder2 tbsp minced onion1 tsp coarse ground pepper1 ¼ lbs raw flank or chuck steak, shaved 2 tbsp butter2 sweet onions, thinly sliced5 oz baby spinach or arugulaSalt and pepper to taste4 oz sliced Provolone2 cloves garlic, halved4 focaccia or ciabatta buns, halved and toasted
Directions
Mix wine through coarse pepper in a large, non-reactive shallow pan.
Add shaved steak and stir to coat. Place in the refrigerator for 8-12 hours. Remove from the marinade and pat dry.
Strain marinade into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cook five minutes, set aside.
In a large, deep skillet over medium-low heat, melt the butter.
Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are a rich golden colour – about 15 minutes. Remove from the pan, reserving the liquid, and set aside.
Return the pan to the stove, raise the heat to medium-high and add the steak.
Cook, stirring, until halfway done, then add the onions, baby spinach and ¼ cup of the boiled marinade.
Stir well, cover and cook until spinach is wilted.
Add 2 tbsp more marinade, then top with a layer of the sliced Provolone. Cook until cheese is thoroughly melted. Remove from heat.
Rub each cut side of each toasted bun half with the cut garlic cloves.
Spoon ¼ of the pan mixture onto one half of each bun and press down well.
If desired, serve boiled marinade alongside for dipping.
