WICKED STEAK SANDWICH
Method
- Prepare your steaks – Limousin prepared minute steaks need little or no preparation
- I do however like to push out (with the palm of my hand ) the steak a little to ensure they are even in thickness
- Place them in a dish and scatter over the garlic, thyme leaves, chilli flakes and ground pepper
- Drizzle over enough oil to moisten the steaks
- Set aside
- Heat a griddle pan or fry pan up to very hot
- Slice the bread in half horizontally
- If using mayonnaise spread on one half
- Place the lettuce leaves over the mayonnaise
- Place the steaks into your very hot frypan
- Season with salt cook for 30 seconds or so and turn over
- Cook for a further 30 seconds
- Remove from the pan and place directly onto the lettuce, scatter over the onion, squeeze over a little lemon juice
- Place the other half of bread on top and press down firmly
- Cut into desired thickness
- Great served as is or try mixing it up a little by adding wilted spinach instead of lettuce combined with a few garlicky field mushrooms
- I also really like a little beetroot relish or bottled beetroot
Comments
The world cup is upon us whether we like it or not which could mean some of us could be entertaining more than usual or even needing that quick snack to fill the gap before the rugby.
Limousin’s Beef is fantastically tender, easy to prepare, low in cholesterol and yet high in flavour. I am going to show you many ways to spice them up and use their fast cooking minute steaks.
Thank you to Limousin Beef for supporting this demonstration.
