  • 1 pound of crimini mushrooms
  • 4 Tablespoons of butter

How to Do it:

STEAK

Mix the pepper, garlic powder and onion powder and rub both sides of all steaks generously.  Set aside.

Make the beet salad, then while it chills, finish the steaks.

Sprinkle both sides of the steaks with a pinch of salt.  Heat the grill to high.

While the grill is heating, cook the mushrooms.

Cook the steaks about 2-3 minutes on each side – or to your desired doneness.

BEET SALAD

Using a potato peeler, peel the beets and shave them either with the potato peeler or the shave side of a grater.

Do the same with the carrot.

Cut the bacon into chunks and cook until crispy.

Mix the all the vegetables, bacon, feta and the vinaigrette and set in the refrigerator to chill.

 

MUSHROOMS

Slice the mushrooms into thick slices.  Using about 1 Tablespoon of the bacon fat, add the butter and melt.  Cook the mushrooms until they are soft and warm.  Add the garlic and cook for about 3 more minutes.  Serve over the steak.

 

Serves 4

    Hi there! Visiting from the Home Matters link party. Now this is a great dinner! This looks so delicious! Thank you so much for sharing the recipe!

  3. This is the second time in a week I have seen a peeler used to shave vegetables, great idea for a new look. We love to saute mushrooms, sometimes I use a bit of balsamic vinegar with them or red wine. Looks delish!

    Thanks for linking this week on Friday Features, wishing you a great weekend!
