This is a wonderful way to use fresh basil and tomato from the garden and a steak on the grill. You might not have had a vegetable relish on steak before and neither had my husband or myself. We were delighted with the flavor mixed with the steak. You'll need a way to saute the vegetables on the grill, such as a grilling basket. Skewers are also an alternative. Adapted from Food and Wine. Ingredients:
4 -5 fresh button mushrooms, cut into slices |
1 medium onion, cut into 1/2 inch slices |
4 plum tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise |
olive oil, for basting |
1 clove garlic, minced |
3 tablespoons snipped fresh basil |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 teaspoon kosher salt |
1 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Microwave the onion slices with two tablespoons of water for about two minutes. 2. Saute the minced garlic until tender, about 5 minutes. 3. Place vegetables in grilling basket and baste with olive oil. 4. Grill mushrooms, onion, and tomatoes until tender, turning once (About 10 minutes for mushrooms, 15 minutes for onion, and 7 minutes for tomatoes). 5. Remove the vegetables as they are done. 6. Cut cooked onion and tomatoes into 1-inch pieces. 7. Stir together in a medium bowl the basil, garlic, the 2 tablespoons olive oil, kosher salt, pepper and all vegetables. 8. Spoon warm over steaks. |
