Lemon Pepper Steaks
Ingredients:
2 boneless beef top loin steaks, cut 1 inch thick
1 tbsp snipped fresh oregano or 1 tsp dried oregano, crushed
1 tsp bottled minced garlic
1 tsp finely shredded lemon peel
1 tsp olive oil or cooking oil
1/4 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
Directions:
Trim fat from steaks. In a small bowl stir together oregano, garlic, lemon peel, oil and pepper. Using your fingers, rub mixture onto both sides of steaks.
For a charcoal grill, grill steaks on rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals until desired doneness, turning meat once halfway through grilling. Allow 11 to 15 minutes for medium rare (145 degrees F) and 14 to 18 minutes for medium (160 degrees F). (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place steak on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.) To serve, thinly slice steak diagonally across the grain into thin strips.
Broiling Directions: Preheat broiler. Place steaks on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat until desired doneness, turning once halfway through broiling. Allow 12 to 14 minutes for medium rare and 15 to 18 minutes for medium.
Makes 4 Servings.
