Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Season the skirt steak evenly with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and set aside.
In a skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes until caramelized.
Stir in the balsamic vinegar with the onions and let cook for an additional 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Grill the skirt steak for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer according to your preferred doneness. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
Cut the ciabatta rolls in half and spread butter lightly on the cut sides. Toast the rolls on the grill for 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.
Assemble the sandwiches: Layer the bottom half of each ciabatta roll with sliced skirt steak, caramelized onions, crumbled gorgonzola cheese, and a handful of arugula.
Top with the other half of the roll, press slightly, and serve immediately.
