  • 1/2 cup  (125 mL)  unsalted butter, softened
  • 6 anchovies, minced
  • 2 tsp  (10 mL)  Dijon mustard
  • 3/4 tsp  (4 mL)  lemon juice

  • 1/2 tsp  (2 mL)  black pepper
  • 18 slices whole wheat sandwich bread
  • 1 large bunch arugula

Preparation

With fork, mix together butter, anchovies, mustard and lemon juice. Sprinkle steak with pepper; grill or pan-fry until medium-rare. Remove from heat; let stand for 15 minutes. Slice steak into very thin strips. Spread 1 side of each slice of bread with scant 1-1/2 tsp/7 mL butter mixture. Cut off stems from arugula; lay leaves over half of the bread slices.

Top with steak slices; sprinkle with salt to taste. Top with remaining bread slices. Cut off crusts; cut into finger sandwiches as desired.

Makes 27 to 36 pieces.
