Barbecued sirloin steak with salsa verde

Sirloin is tasty, juicy and great for barbecuing. It’s served here with salsa verde – ideal for dining alfresco.

Ingreadient

 

• 2 x 150g Waitrose British or Hereford Sirloin Steaks
• 2 tsp nonpareille capers, drained
• 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
• 2 anchovy fillets in extra virgin olive oil, drained
• 25g pack basil, trimmed
• ½ x 25g pack parsley
• 4 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp lemon juice

Step by step

1. Light the barbecue or preheat the griddle on a high heat. In a blender, whizz together all the salsa ingredients to make a smooth sauce. Season.
2. Spread 1/2 tbsp of salsa over the top of each steak. Cook the steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side, until well browned and the centre is cooked to your liking. Serve with the remaining salsa verde. A mixed tomato salad and buttered new potatoes make a lovely accompaniment, if liked.
