- 1 lb rib eye steak
- 2 slices of bread
- 1 tbsp minced garlic
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp butter
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 tbsp white wine
- 4 slices of cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella

Open the ThermoPro app on your smartphone and set the target steak temperature to 130°F for a perfect medium-rare finish.
Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat and add a bit of olive oil. Sear the steak on both sides until a beautiful brown crust forms. Dont forget to sear the edges, too. Once the ThermoPro app notifies you the steak has reached 130°F, remove it from the pan.
Let the rib eye steak rest in a warm spot for about 5 minutes. This helps keep it juicy and tender when sliced.
In a skillet, melt 1 tbsp of butter, then add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Pour in the cream and chicken broth, and season with salt, pepper, white wine, and a bit of Dijon mustard and whole grain mustard if desired. Simmer the sauce until thick and creamy.
Split the bread slices and layer shredded mozzarella in between. Toast the bread in the oven just until the cheese melts, then open up the sandwich halves.
Slice the rested steak and place it generously on the bottom half of the sandwich. Spoon the warm garlic cream sauce over the steak, then layer on cheese slices. Return to the oven briefly to melt the cheese. Once out, top with fresh tomato slices and basil leaves—or any veggies you love!
Drizzle with a touch of olive oil, sprinkle a little salt and pepper, and crown it with the top half of the bread. Enjoy your perfectly juicy rib eye sandwich!
