French Dip Sandwich

Ingredients

• 1½ lb roast beef, thinly sliced deli style
• 4 cup beef broth
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder
• 2 loaf baguette
• 2 tbsp butter (optional)
• 4 slice provolone cheese (optional)

Steps

1. In a medium saucepan, combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
2. Reduce heat to low and keep the au jus warm. If desired, lightly butter the cut sides of the baguettes and toast them in a skillet or oven until golden.
3. Add the thinly sliced roast beef to the warm au jus for 1-2 minutes, just long enough to heat through without overcooking.
4. If using, place a slice of provolone cheese on one half of each toasted baguette. Briefly return to the oven or skillet to melt the cheese.
5. Carefully remove the beef from the au jus using tongs and pile generously onto the prepared baguette halves.
6. Serve the sandwiches immediately with small bowls of the warm au jus for dipping.
