Since we had a whole bunch of red chillies hanging around from an earlier recipe this week, Reb thought it would be best to use them up (novel idea). Hence the grilled chillies on this ridiculously good looking steak.
Kay, so nothing crazy here, but the chillies added so much heat that Reb put all of hers on my plate. I ended up trading her another piece of red pepper (also grilled). The sour cream did little for the heat. Okay though, because I like it spicy. I'll have to ask Reb what the sauce on the asparagus was... I think it was a dijon/lemon concoction. Nice compliment to the steak. Way to go, Jaime Oliver, you puckah limey bastard!
You'll notice that there are grill marks on everything. Yes, we live in a condo, no we're not allowed to have a BBQ. We have a Cuisinart "Griddler". It's an excellent alternative for indoor, downtown types that can't have a BBQ. It comes with extra grill plates so you can also use it like an open-faced pancake pan. We like it, and it gets used a whole bunch. In fact, Cuisinart owes me a kickback for all the good press.
BTW, we've got company over tonight, and Reb's making Tomato Soup from scratch. We're hoping for a favourable review, hopefully you'll see it in the comments (hint hint)!
