Tender steak marinated and grilled along with fresh eggplant, asparagus, sweet onion and Portobello mushrooms. Served warm or cold, this is a great dish to serve as a main dish or surrounded with side dishes such as hot orzo, and garlic pita toast.
Extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, onion and garlic powders, dried oregano and basil combine to make a powerful marinade imparting wonderful Mediterranean style flavors. Steak is grilled over direct heat to create grill marks and quickly sear in flavor. The fresh sliced vegetables are grilled and removed as they finish cooking. Plate the steak and vegetables over torn Romaine lettuce pieces.
