Monday Night Grilling

I fired up the grill last night and made one of the flatiron steaks from our cow. I rubbed the steak with freshly ground cumin and coriander, salt, and pepper (the salt just before going on the grill, the others a bit in advance), and grilled it over a hot fire. To go with the steak, I made a quick salsa:

2 Tbs minced onion, rinsed
1 clove garlic, minced
juice from 1 1/2 limes
2 small tomatoes (CSA)
2 Tbs cilantro (CSA), minced
1-2 Tbs ketchup
salt
5 Hungarian yellow peppers (CSA)

Combine all the ingredients except the peppers in a bowl and mix gently.
Grill the peppers over a hot fire until nicely charred, then chop them coarsely (removing most of the seeds) and add them to the salsa.

I served the steak thinly sliced on the bias with salsa on the side. It was very nice.

To go with the steak we had grilled summer squash (CSA), brown rice with feta, and a salad.
