Halve and peel the yellow onion. Slice the halves into 1/4” strips.
Cut steak into strips and pat dry.
Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Add onion slices to the hot pan and stir occasionally until browned and caramelized, about 10-13 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Place naan flatbreads directly on the oven rack and toast until lightly browned, about 6-8 minutes.
Place the pan with caramelized onions on medium-high heat. Add steak strips to the hot pan and stir often until no pink remains, about 4-6 minutes.
Place toasted flatbreads on a clean work surface and spread BBQ sauce evenly over each.
Add the steak strip-onion mixture on top and sprinkle with shredded cheddar-jack cheese.
Place assembled flatbreads directly on the oven rack and bake until the cheese melts and flatbreads turn golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Top the baked flatbreads with baby arugula and drizzle with buttermilk ranch dressing.
Serve and enjoy!
