Mediterranean Grilled Chuck Steak with Garden Grilled Vegetables

Dive into this marinated, grilled chuck steak paired with flavors of the Mediterranean. Served with seasonal grilled vegetables.

Ingredients

• 1 pound beef Blade Chuck Steak
• 2 teaspoons Mediterranean Spice Mix
• 2 zucchini, cut lengthwise
• 8 baby sweet bell peppers
• 1 teaspoon olive oil

• 2/3 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2/3 cup olive oil
• 1 Tablespoon Mediterranean spice mix

Instructions

1. Combine marinade in a small bowl. Place beef Chuck steaks & marinade in food-safe plastic bag; turn steaks to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turning occasionally.

2. In a medium size bowl toss zucchini & mini bell peppers with 1 teaspoon olive. Place vegetables on grid over medium heat. Grill 3 to 5 minutes on each side. Remove from grill and set aside. Once slightly cooled slice zucchini into 1/4inch slices and set aside. 

3. Remove steaks from marinade; discard marinade. Season each side of the steak with 1/2 Tablespoon of spice mix. Place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 3 to 4 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 3 to 4 minutes) for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning occasionally. Remove from the grill and season with salt, as desired. Serve alongside grilled vegetables. 

• Test Kitchen Tips Marinade that has been in contact with uncooked meat must be brought to a full rolling boil for a least one minute before it can be used for basting or as a sauce.
