Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Tri-Tip Steak
  • salt and pepper
  • 1/2 cup olive oil, plus 2 tablespoons (divided)
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 1 large handful basil, roughly chopped
  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes
  • 23 heaping tablespoons pine nut
  • Optional- tomato and onion for grilling

Instructions

  1. Heat your grill or grill pan to high heat.
  2. While bringing the steak to room temperature, drizzle 2 tablespoons oil over the entire steak. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, on both sides of the steak.
  3. When the grill has reached 400F, add the steak. Cook on the first side for 6 minutes or until charred nicely (cooking time will depend on the size of your steak – mine was rather large, so it took longer).
  4. Meanwhile, mix together the basil oil. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic, basil, red pepper flakes and a large pinch of each salt and pepper.
  5. Flip the steak over and cook until desire temperature is reached. Remove the steak to a cutting board and let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing into. Slice the steak into thin slices. Using a spoon, spoon the basil oil over the steak. Garnish with pine nuts.
  6. Serve with the oil at the table for extra dipping or drizzles!
