50 gram Capers 

 

Method

1. Remove the T-bone from the fridge and place on a plate leave out on the bench to come up to room temperature, light your BBQ so it gets nice and hot

2. Pick the parsley,coriander and mint separating the leaves and the stalks, finely chop and put in a bowl 

3. Peel both the shallots set one aside for the salad, finely dice one of the shallots and add to the bowl with the herbs

4. Remove the anchovies from the tin and finely chop these along with the jalapenos, add these to the bowl with the herbs, grate both the garlic cloves in to this bowl and mix adding the olive oil and the red wine vinegar and a good pinch of flake salt, mix well and set aside in the fridge 

5. Finely slice the other shallot and place in a bowl with the capers, thyme and red wine vinegar, leave to marinade for 15 minutes, once that time is up add the olive oil 

6. Slice the tomatoes into rounds and lay out on a large plate, season well with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 

7. Place the thyme and rosemary together and tie with a piece of string, place the bunch into a small bowl of olive oil and brush the olive oil all over the steak, season well with flake salt and freshly ground black pepper 

8. Place the steak flat on the BBQ and brush again with the rosemary and thyme brush, repeat this process every 5 minutes during the cooking after approx. 10 minutes turn the steak and cook for a further 8 minutes, remove from the grill and allow to rest (if you can use a temperature probe top measure the middle of the meat we want the internal temperature to be 55c, probes are a great investment to help your cooking)

9. Spoon the caper and shallot dressing over the top of the tomatoes and place the basil over the top of that 

10. After 10 minutes resting, remove the steak from the bone using a sharp knife and slice, spoon over the top of the steak the anchovy Salsa Verde and leave the remainder on the side serve immediately
