Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Tri-tip beef
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 4 pieces Whole-grain sandwich rolls
- 4 tablespoons Low-fat mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 cup Arugula
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 cup Red onion, thinly sliced
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, soy sauce, garlic powder, rosemary, and ground black pepper.
Place the tri-tip beef in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring it is evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the beef is marinating, prepare the sandwich toppings. Mix low-fat mayonnaise and Dijon mustard in a small bowl and set aside. Slice the tomato and thinly slice the red onion.
Once the grill is hot, place the marinated tri-tip on the grill.
Grill the beef for about 10-12 minutes on each side, or until a meat thermometer reads 145°F for medium-rare.
Remove the tri-tip from the grill, cover it with aluminum foil, and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
While the beef is resting, cut the whole-grain sandwich rolls in half and lightly toast them on the grill for 1-2 minutes.
Thinly slice the rested tri-tip beef against the grain for tenderness.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a tablespoon of the mayonnaise mixture on the bottom half of each toasted roll.
Layer on a few slices of tri-tip, followed by arugula, tomato slices, and red onions.
Close the sandwich with the top half of the roll and serve immediately.
