Grilled Steak with Hand-Chopped Salsa

Recipe By Louis Tikaram

Ingredients

  • 500g Coles Finest scotch fillet steak

  • 2 tsp sea salt

  • 1 tsp Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil

    Hand-Chopped Salsa

  • 1 clove garlic

  • 1 long green chilli

  • 4 green shallots

  • 2 green tomatoes

  • 1 bunch of fresh coriander

  • 1 bunch of fresh mint leaves

  • 2 limes

  • 1 tsp fish sauce

  • 2 tbsp Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil

Method

  • Remove the steak from the fridge and allow it to come up to room temperature. Drizzle with olive oil and season with sea salt.

  • To make the salsa, peel the garlic, deseed the chilli, trim the spring onions, and chop them together with the tomatoes, coriander, and mint leaves on a large chopping board. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl.

  • Season the salsa with fish sauce, squeeze in the lime juice, and drizzle lightly with extra virgin olive oil. Mix well to combine.

  • Preheat the BBQ or grill pan to a high heat. Cook the steak for 6 to 7 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your liking. Remove from the heat and let it rest.

  • Cut the steak against the grain into slices. Arrange the steak on a serving platter and spoon the hand-chopped salsa over it.
