Steps
-
Preheat oven to 220°C. Preheat BBQ to mediumhigh (if using, see tip).

Prep & cook roast veggies. Toss carrot with 1/2 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 1/2 tsp oil over tomatoes and season. Continue to roast veggies for a further 10 minutes, until tender.
-
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.
-
Prep & cook beef. Pat beef dry, rub with Mediterranean spice and season. Heat 1 tsp oil in fry-pan on medium-high heat. Cook beef for about 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.

Prep & cook greens (see tip). Wipe same pan clean and return to high heat with 1 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.

Finish beef. Thinly slice beef, reserving any resting juices.

Serve veggies topped with beef, greens, resting juices, feta and pine nuts.
