Katie and the surf n turf – 30 Day Steak Challenge – Day 12

Today was the first home-cooked steak of the month… wow.

Sadly our options of meat were limited, so we ended up going to Foodland (a multinational general supermarket), but in the end the meat we got was… ok

Also bought some “offcut” salmon to go with it for a bit of the surf n turf feel.

Was in a friend’s unfamiliar kitchen so worked with what I could find – no olive oil to pre-rub the steaks with stuff, instead used lemon juice which many have been an error – if only a slight one.

Ended up covering them with lemon juice and pepper and this new chimmichurri spice thing that wants to be made into a sauce which I made by combining equal parts Danish butter, chimmichurri powder, minced garlic, and awesomeness.

In the end, the steaks were somewhat overcooked, but they tasted terrific, and god damn that salmon was freakin’ awesome.
