AuthorBen WatsonCategory, ,

Sliced sirloin steak served on a bed of rocket with Parmesan shavings and jus - perfect for when you don't want to spend the whole evening in the kitchen.

Yields1 Serving
 1.30 beef fillet, bavette is best
 5-6 large handfuls of mixed peppery leaves (rocket, chicory, or red giant)
 50 g Parmigiano Reggiano, shaved
1

Bring the steak to room temperature.

Bring a skillet or heavy-based pan to high heat and coat the steak with a drizzle of olive oil on each side.

Once the pan is smoking, lower it to a medium heat and griddle the steak for 2 minutes (for rare) or 3 minutes (for medium) on each side. Let it rest for 5-10 minutes.

Meanwhile, arrange the salad leaves on a platter and shave the Parmigiano Reggiano on top.

Optional – whizz up a fresh salsa verde in a blender or food processor by adding a handful of each, parsley, basil, mint, 2 cloves of garlic, 8 anchovy fillets and 8 tbsp of good olive oil.

Slice and serve the steak on the bed of leaves and drizzle with olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt.
