Steak on sourdough with garlicky tomatoes

Step by Step

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 220oC, gas mark 7. Take the steaks out of their packaging and season; set aside until ready to cook. Toss the courgettes, tomatoes, 2 tbsp oil, the oregano and garlic in a non-stick roasting tin, then roast for 20 minutes, stirring halfway.

Step 2

Heat a barbecue or griddle pan to a high heat. Add the beans to the roasting tin with the vegetables, squeeze over the lemon juice and season, stirring everything together. Roast for a further 5 minutes.

Step 3

Brush the bread and steaks with the remaining 1 tbsp oil. Cook the steaks on the barbecue or griddle pan for 2-3 minutes on each side (for medium-rare), ensuring all the cut surfaces are well cooked and browned, then set aside to rest for 2-3 minutes. Meanwhile, char the sourdough for 1 minute on each side.

Step 4

Pile the vegetables and beans (remove the oregano sprigs) onto the sourdough. Slice the steak and serve on top. A little horseradish sauce will go nicely on the side, if liked.
