Ingredients

• 2 pieces Ciabatta bread rolls
• 200 grams Sliced roast beef
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Prepared horseradish
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 handful Baby arugula
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 1 pinch Salt
• 1 pinch Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the yellow onion thinly.

Step 2

Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.

Step 3

Add the sliced onion to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is caramelized and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, and Dijon mustard to make the horseradish aioli. Set aside.

Step 5

Slice the ciabatta rolls in half and drizzle the cut sides with olive oil.

Step 6

Toast the ciabatta rolls cut-side down in another skillet or on a grill pan over medium heat until golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 7

Layer the bottom halves of the toasted ciabatta rolls with sliced roast beef, caramelized onions, and Swiss cheese slices. Place these halves back on the skillet or grill pan over low heat. Cover with a lid to melt the cheese, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Spread a generous layer of horseradish aioli on the top halves of the ciabatta rolls.

Step 9

Once the cheese is melted, remove the sandwiches from the heat and top with a handful of fresh baby arugula.

Step 10

Assemble the sandwiches by placing the top halves of the ciabatta rolls onto the melted-cheese halves.

Step 11

Cut each sandwich in half if desired and serve warm.
