  • 12L Vegetable Oil, for deep frying
  • 800g Rib Eye Steak
  • 30g Butter
  • 2 Cloves Garlic
  • A handful of Fresh Thyme
  • 60g Wild Rocket
  • 4 Ciabatta Buns or Panini
  • 30g Shallot or White Onion, peeled and cut into pieces
  • 1/2 Red Chili
  • 1 Garlic Clove, peeled
  • 30ml Red Wine Vinegar
  • 60g Coriander
  • 60g Parsley
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 125ml Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • Salt to season
  • 1 Red Onion, peeled and sliced
  • Boiling Water
  • 30ml Red Wine Vinegar
  • 60ml Olive Oil
  • Sumac

Method

Fries: Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot. Cook the McCain Shoestring Fries according to the package instructions until crispy. Season with salt and set aside.

Steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper. In a large non-stick pan, heat the oil and then add butter. Once the butter begins to sizzle, add the garlic, thyme, and steak. Cook the steak for approximately 4 – 6 minutes on each side for medium rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Let the steak rest before thinly slicing.

Chimichurri: Combine all chimichurri ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Season with salt to taste.

Pickled Onions: Soak the sliced onions in boiling water for 5 minutes, then drain. Mix the onions with red wine vinegar, olive oil, sumac, and a pinch of salt.

Assembly: Spread chimichurri on each bun, followed by slices of steak, pickled onions, and a handful of rocket. Serve with a side of McCain Shoestring Fries.
