Prep Time: 45
Cook time: 10
Serves: 4

Ingredients:
 
1 (12 ounce) Silver Fern Farms Angus New Zealand Grass-Fed Strip Steak
Kosher Salt, to taste
Fresh Cracked Black Pepper, to taste 
Olive Oil, as needed
1 ½ pounds Heirloom Cherry or Grape Tomatoes
3 Large Garlic Cloves, crushed
Fresh Lemon Zest from ½ lemon
¼ Cup Fresh Basil, chopped
Flakey Sea Salt, to taste
4 - ½” Thick Slices Ciabatta Bread (or other crusty bread)

Instructions:

Pat your New Zealand Grass-Fed strip steak dry and season generously with kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper. Set aside for 15 minutes. Preheat your grill to high and oil your grill grate. Reserve a clean space on your grill for the tomatoes. Once hot, grill steak for 4 minutes, flip and cook until your desired level of doneness. About 4 more minutes for rare (pictured above).

Meanwhile, in a large bowl toss your tomatoes, crushed garlic, and olive oil together. Season with a little salt and pepper and wrap in an aluminum foil pouch. Place the pouch of tomatoes on the grill, and let cook for 20 minutes. 

Once your steak is done, remove from the grill, tent, and let rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. When your tomatoes are done, remove them from the grill, and when cool enough to handle, open the pouch. 

Now, it’s time for assembly! Take your 4 slices of ciabatta bread and top each slice with your grilled tomatoes. Zest a little lemon over the tomatoes on each slice of bread. Now place 3-4 slices of your New Zealand Grass-Fed Strip Steak on top of your tomatoes. Top each slice with some chopped basil and flakey sea salt. Grab a knife and fork and dig in!

Tip: There will be so much amazing tomato juice left over. Do not discard! Use this to drizzle over your toast, and of course to dunk any extra bread in.
