Ingredients

ROAST VEGGIES

  • 1/2 carrot, diced 2cm
  • 1/2 capsicum, diced 2cm
  • 1/4 punnet cherry tomatoes

BEEF

  • 1 pack beef sirloin steak, any excess fat trimmed
  • 1 pack Mediterranean spice

GREENS

  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 1/4 broccoli, cut into small florets
  • 1 pack balsamic dressing

TO SERVE

  • 2 tsp pine nuts
  • 1 Tbsp feta cheese, crumbled

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Preheat BBQ to mediumhigh (if using, see tip).
  2. Prep & cook roast veggies. Toss carrot with 1/4 tsp oil on a lined oven tray and season. Roast for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, toss capsicum through carrot and place tomatoes on tray beside veggies. Drizzle 1/4 tsp oil over tomatoes and season. Continue to roast veggies for 8 minutes, until tender.
  3. Toast pine nuts. Heat a dry fry-pan on mediumhigh heat. Toast pine nuts in pan for about 2 minutes, until golden. Remove from pan and set aside for serving.
  4. Prep & cook beef. Pat beef dry, rub with Mediterranean spice and season. Heat 1/4 tsp oil in fry-pan on medium-high heat. Cook beef for 3-4 minutes each side for medium (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Rest, covered and reserve pan. Alternatively, do this on the BBQ.
  5. Prep & cook greens. Wipe pan clean and return to high heat with 1/2 tsp oil. Place asparagus and broccoli in pan with a splash of water. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring, until bright green and almost tender. Add balsamic dressing and cook a further 1 minute, stirring to coat. Remove from heat and season.
  6. Finish beef. Thinly slice beef, reserving any resting juices.
  7. Serve veggies topped with beef, greens, resting juices, feta and pine nuts.
