Tiger Steak with Roasted Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 tiger steaks (8 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Rub the spice mixture onto both sides of the tiger steaks and let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
- Place the seasoned tiger steaks on a preheated grill or grill pan and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired level of doneness. Remove from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- While the tiger steaks are resting, spread the mixed vegetables on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and 1 tablespoon of honey. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly.
- Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- To serve, place a tiger steak on each plate and spoon the roasted vegetables alongside. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and enjoy!
Tiger steak, also known as bistecca alla Fiorentina, is a traditional Tuscan dish that dates back to the Renaissance era. This iconic dish features a thick-cut T-bone steak, seasoned with salt, pepper, and olive oil, then grilled over a wood fire to perfection. The steak is typically served rare to medium-rare to preserve its natural juices and tenderness. As for the roasted vegetables, they are often sourced from the local markets in Tuscany, showcasing the region's freshest produce such as eggplants, zucchinis, bell peppers, and tomatoes. The vegetables are seasoned with herbs like rosemary and thyme, then roasted until caramelized and tender, providing a delightful contrast to the rich and savory tiger steak. For the best version of this dish, head to the heart of Tuscany, where skilled chefs and traditional wood-fired grills elevate the flavors to new heights. The key to nailing this dish lies in the quality of the steak, the grilling technique, and the freshness of the vegetables. While bistecca alla Fiorentina is the classic preparation, some chefs also offer a modern twist by marinating the steak with balsamic vinegar or serving it with a drizzle of aged balsamic reduction for added depth of flavor.
