📌 Ingredients:
For the Steak:
2 ribeye steaks (or your preferred cut, about 1 inch thick)
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper (to taste)
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary (optional)
2 garlic cloves, smashed (optional)
For the Grilled Broccoli:
1 bunch of fresh broccoli, trimmed and cut into florets
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tbsp lemon juice (optional)
A pinch of garlic powder (optional)
🔥 Instructions:
Prepare the Steak:
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the steaks with olive oil and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides. You can also add rosemary and smashed garlic for extra flavor.
Let the steaks rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes before grilling to ensure even cooking.
Grill the Steak:
Place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (or longer if you prefer your steak cooked more). You can use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature: 130°F for medium-rare.
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Grill the Broccoli:
Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Grill the broccoli for about 4-5 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Optional: Add a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of garlic powder for extra flavor after grilling.
Assemble the Heart-Shaped Plate:
Slice the steaks into strips and arrange them in a heart shape on your plate, with a bunch of grilled broccoli in the center.
You can even use a bit of kitchen twine to tie the broccoli together to create a heart-like bundle for presentation.
Serve:
Your heart-shaped steak and broccoli are ready to serve! Perfect for a romantic dinner or special occasion.
🍴 Pro Tip:
You can drizzle a bit of balsamic glaze or steak sauce over the steak for added flavor. Serve with mashed potatoes, or your favorite side dish to complete the meal.
Enjoy this gorgeous, delicious steak dinner! 🍴💖
