Instructions

1. Position the oven rack in top third of oven. Preheat the oven’s broiler. In a small bowl, mix together garlic powder, salt and pepper.
2. Place fast fry steaks in a single layer on a plate and pierce all over both sides with a fork
3. to tenderize the beef. Season beef with half of the salt and pepper mixture. In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tsp (5 mL) canola oil over medium-high. Cook beef for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a clean plate.
4. In the same skillet, heat 2 tsp (10 mL) canola oil over medium-high heat. Cook the onions for 2 minutes, stir in mushrooms, peppers and the remaining salt and pepper mixture and cook for another minute stirring often.
5. Cut baguette into 4 equal size pieces. Slice horizontally and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet open sides facing up. Rub each baguette with garlic. Place baking sheet in the oven under the broiler to toast the bread, about 1 minute. Remove from the oven; set the four baguette “tops” off to the side for later use. Layer the remaining four baguette slices on the baking sheet evenly with steak (slice the steak into smaller strips if needed), mushroom mixture and mozzarella cheese. Broil for another minute or until cheese is melted. Take out of the oven and top with the other half of the baguette. Enjoy right away or wrap in parchment to pack for lunch!

Notes

Tip: Piercing a tough cut of beef, such as an inside round, with a fork helps to tenderize it. You can also tenderize meat by using a meat mallet, slicing I thinly, cooking it low and slow or by using a marinade.
