Grilled Sirloin and Roasted Veggies

Grilled Sirloin and Roasted Veggies

Tonight's dinner was simple, easy, and delicious. We had some veggies that needed using  and a sirloin steak from Wegman's that was crying out for plate time. It took about 15 minutes to prepare and 30 minutes to cook. 

Ingredients

2-3 cups of  green, yellow, and red peppers, sliced into 1-2 inch pieces

1/4 -1/2 red onion cut into wedges

8-10 baby red potatoes cut in half or quartered depending on size

(You could also add tomato wedges and/or artichoke hearts)

Olive oil cooking spray

Kosher Salt and freshly ground pepper

A dash of ground thyme

Lean Sirloin Steak

Your favorite steak rub (I used one we got in Savannah)

A little extra virgin olive oil

Pre-heat the oven to 450 degrees

Fire up the grill

Spray two baking or cookie sheets with olive oil cooking spray

Arrange the veggies any way you like on the sheets, salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle the thyme (parsley, sage and rosemary, too if you're having Simon and Garfunkle over for dinner) and give them a light spray as well

When the oven is ready, place on separate racks and cook for 25-30 minutes, turning them once and looking for them to brown slightly

Brush a little olive oil on both sides of the steak(s) and rub seasoning in to taste, adding some Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

When you have about fifteen minutes to go with the veggies, grill the steaks to the level of doneness you prefer (for a 1 lb sirloin about 6 minutes per side, more or less, for rare to medium rare)

Serve immediately

Bon Appétit!

What's on the skewers, you ask? Since I had the grill all fired up, I decided to do some marinated chicken  - also from Wegman's - for tomorrow night's dinner. Now all I have to do is decide on a side dish. I'm learning to make things easier for myself as I go along.
