Strip Steak Sandwiches with Horseradish Mustard Butter

This simple steak sandwich recipe is perfect for a gourmet lunch on the go. I usually double this recipe and wrap the sandwiches up in plastic wrap for the week. It's quick and easy, and tastes like it took hours and hours of painstaking preparation. The New York Strip steak is my favorite cut to use for this recipe, but it also works nice with a good rib eye steak.

Ingredients

• 6 tbs unsalted butter
  
• 3 tbs drained bottled horseradish
  
• 3 tbs Dijon mustard
  
• 1 1/2 tbs minced shallot
  
• 2 10 oz New York Strip Steaks
  
• 2 large baguettes
  
• 1 large bunch watercress, tough stems removed

Recipe Directions:
Preheat broiler. Blend together butter, horseradish, mustard, shallot, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl with a fork until well blended. Pat steaks dry, season both sides well with salt and pepper, and put on rack of a broiler pan. Spread top of steaks with 1 tablespoon mustard butter mixture, then broil 2 to 3 inches from heat 5 minutes. Turn over and spread other side with 1 tablespoon mustard butter mixture, then broil 4 to 5 minutes more for medium-rare. Transfer meat to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes. (Leave broiler on.) Cut baguettes crosswise into 4 equal sections, then halve sections horizontally. Broil bread, cut sides up, about 3 inches from heat, rotating pan once, until golden, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Holding knife at a 45-degree angle, very thinly slice steaks across the grain. Spread cut sides of bread with mustard butter and mound steaks on half of bread. Top with watercress and remaining bread. Serve immediately.

Asian Steak Salad

Any steak you have on hand will be great for this recipe, but I like using New York Strip Steaks to ensure that it turns out as flavorful as possible.

Ingredients
For steak

• 1/4 cup Asian fish sauce
  
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
  
• 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  
• 2 tablespoons sugar
  
• 2 10 oz. NY Strip Steaks

For salad

• 1/2 cup fresh lime juice
  
• 6 tablespoons water
  
• 6 tablespoons sugar
  
• 6 tablespoons Asian fish sauce
  
• 1 1/2 teaspoons dried hot red-pepper flakes
  
• 1/2 cup thinly sliced shallots (2 medium)
  
• 8 oz dried vermicelli rice-stick noodles*
  
• 2 medium Granny Smith apples
  
• 7 oz Asian salad mix (16 cups loosely packed; see cooks' note, below)
  
• 1 cup fresh mint leaves, torn into pieces if large
  
• 1/2 cup salted roasted peanuts (sometimes labeled "cocktail peanuts"), chopped
  

Directions
Marinate and grill steak: Whisk together fish sauce, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and sugar in a small bowl until sugar is dissolved. Pour marinade into a large sealable plastic bag. Pat steak dry and place in bag, then press out excess air and seal bag. Turn bag over 2 or 3 times to coat meat, then place in a shallow dish (in case of leaks) and chill at least 4 hours and up to 8. Bring steak to room temperature 30 minutes before grilling. Prepare grill for cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas). Remove steak from marinade (discard marinade) and pat dry with paper towels. Grill, uncovered unless using a gas grill, over direct heat, turning over once, until medium-rare, 12 to 14 minutes total. Transfer steak to a cutting board and let stand, uncovered, about 15 minutes. Assemble salad while steak rests: Whisk together lime juice, water, sugar, fish sauce, and red-pepper flakes in a bowl until sugar is dissolved, then stir in shallots. Cook noodles in a 5-quart pot of boiling salted water until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain in a colander, then rinse under cold water and drain well. Transfer to a bowl and toss with 1/2 cup dressing. Working around core of each apple, cut thin slices (about 1/8 inch thick) with slicer, then stack slices. Cut slices lengthwise into 1/4-inch-wide matchsticks. Combine apples, greens, and mint in a large bowl. Add 1/2 cup dressing and toss well to coat. Thinly slice steak across the grain.
