Take advantage of grilling season while you can with an easy recipe for a classic combo: grilled steak and tomatoes in a balsamic barbecue marinade. It’s not fancy, but it’s definitely delicious, and isn’t that just what we all need every now and then?
If you’re making a batch of barbecue sauce specifically for this recipe, go ahead and make some extra.
The recipe makes more than ¼ of a cup anyway, so you’ll probably have more than you need. Just keep it in the fridge, or freeze it in an ice-cube tray, so you don’t have to haul out the pots and pans next time you want some.
To keep up the tomato theme, you could serve these skewers with some Paleo “pasta,” but they’d also be good with a pile of roasted bell peppers or just a few slices of grilled eggplant, zucchini, or other summer vegetables.
And don’t neglect their power as omelet fillings or salad toppers the day after; if you have any leftovers, you definitely won’t have trouble finding ways to use them!
