Steak Crostini with Horseradish Sauce & Caramelized Onions combines tender slices of seared steak, creamy horseradish sauce, and sweet caramelized onions on crisp toasted baguette rounds.
1 baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
1 pound sirloin or strip steak
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or thyme
Cook sliced onions in 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-low heat for 25 to 35 minutes until deeply caramelized.
Mix sour cream, horseradish, Dijon, lemon juice, salt, and pepper to make the sauce. Chill until ready to use.
Brush baguette slices with remaining olive oil and toast at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes until golden.
Season steak with salt and pepper. Sear in a hot skillet for 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Rest steak for 5 to 10 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.
Spread horseradish sauce on each crostini, top with caramelized onions and sliced steak.
Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately.
Slice steak thinly for tender bites.
Assemble just before serving to maintain crisp bread.
Greek yogurt may replace sour cream if desired.
