Garlic and Rosemary Steak
This flavourful steak is marinated for at least one night in a robust mixture of olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic and dried rosemary. After broiling to your preferred doneness, the meat is rested, thinly sliced and served with the boiled marinade as a sauce. It's a tried and tested favourite that delivers tender, aromatic beef every time. Preparation time does not include the essential overnight marinating period.
