Take the ribeye steak out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature.
Rub the steak with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet.
Sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your preferred level of doneness.
Once the steak is cooked, transfer it to a cutting board and let it rest for 5-10 minutes.
While the steak rests, slice the onion into thin rings.
In the same skillet, add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and sauté the onions over medium heat until they are caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.
Cut the baguette or ciabatta rolls in half lengthwise and lightly toast them under a broiler or in a toaster oven until golden brown.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each half of the toasted bread.
Thinly slice the rested steak against the grain into strips.
Assemble the sandwiches by layering caramelized onions, steak slices, arugula, and a slice of cheese on the bottom half of each roll.
Place the top half of the roll on the sandwich and serve immediately.
