Steak & Blue Cheese Bruschetta with Onion & Roasted Tomato Jam Recipe
  • Prep: 45 min. Grill: 10 min.
  • Yield: 16 Servings
45 10 55

Ingredients

  • 1 large sweet onion, halved and thinly sliced
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided
  • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 3 ounces crumbled blue cheese
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 16 slices French bread baguette (1/2 inch thick)
  • 2 beef ribeye steaks (3/4 inch thick and 8 ounces each)
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons Montreal steak seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Directions

  • In large skillet, cook and stir onion in 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat until softened. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 30 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
  • Place tomatoes in a shallow baking pan. Add 1 tablespoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; toss to coat. Bake at 400° for 10-15 minutes or until softened. Lightly mash tomatoes; stir into onion.
  • In small bowl, mix cream cheese, blue cheese, garlic and remaining salt and pepper until blended.
  • Brush both sides of baguette slices with remaining oil. Grill over medium heat 1-2 minutes on each side or until toasted.
  • Sprinkle both sides of steaks with steak seasoning. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 3-5 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°). Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Spread cheese mixture onto toasts; top with steak and onion mixture. Drizzle with vinegar. Yield: 16 appetizers (3/4 cup tomato jam).

Saw this recipe prepared at ToH Cooking School. This is DELICIOUS! For non-bleu lovers, dont fret, the flavors meld so nicely you can hardly tell its there. Cant wait to make it for the holidays as an appetizer.

Fantastic! Used queso fresco instead of blue cheese. Husband loved it.

Terrific appetizer that can serve as a meal. Took a short while to assemble, but very well worth it! Outstanding new way to prepare brushetta!
