Ingredients

  • 1 large red onion sliced
  • 2 tablespoons butter divided
  • 2 slices of bread
  • 1/4 pound sliced roast beef
  • 3-4 ounces sliced provolone cheese
  • 1 teaspoon grainy dijon mustard

Instructions

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Once the butter is melted, add the onions. Toss to coat all the onions in the butter, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the onions saute slowly for 30 minutes, stirring frequently. After 30 minutes they should perfectly caramelized.
  • Use the remaining tablespoon of butter to spread on one side of each slice of bread.
  • With the buttered side facing down, layer half the cheese slices on top of the bread, then lay the roast beef on top of the cheese, followed by 2 tablespoons of caramelized onions.
  • Top the onions with the remaining cheese and the grainy dijon mustard and then the other slice of bread with the buttered side facing up.
  • Transfer the sandwich to a skillet over medium heat and cook until the cheese is melted.
  • After 2 - 3 minutes, flip the sandwich over and repeat. The first side should be a nice golden brown.
  • Once the other side is golden brown and the cheese is melted, remove from the skillet, cut in half and serve.
