Steak Sandwiches with Creamy Horseradish Sauce

I absolutely love this recipe for Steak Sandwiches with Creamy Horse Radish Sauce and Arugula. Marinated steak is grilled to medium then plopped on a pretzel bun with creamy horseradish sauce and peppery arugula!

I can’t even express how excited I am to share this steak sandwich recipe with you! But first, can we talk about pretzel buns? They may be the best “invention” ever. I don’t even like pretzels all that much, but buns? I love buns. It really elevates this steak sandwich!

There are so many amazing flavors going on in this sandwich. First, I marinated the filets with my favorite steak marinade. I love this marinade so much – it’s a combination of soy sauce, brown sugar, dijon mustard and some spices. It never disappoints and gives filets so much flavor!

Then I created a creamy horseradish sauce that is silly easy to make – mayo, sour cream, lemon juice, garlic, and horseradish. There is no salt or pepper needed because the steak is salty and the arugula is peppery. Oh arugula, I love you.

I grilled the steak, oh about 6 minutes per side, and got a nice charred crust on it which added even more flavor to sandwich. I let it rest for about 15 minutes – do NOT cut into the steak right away or else all the juicy goodness will run out and we don’t want that. Zee perfect pairing for this steak is some grilled corn and a beer.

This might is the perfect summer grilled meal. Like ever.

2. After the steaks have marinated you first want to make the Horseradish sauce. Add all of the ingredients to a bowl and whisk together. Cover and put in refrigerator.
