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
- 2–3 heaping tablespoons pine nut
- Optional- tomato and onion for grilling
Instructions
- Heat your grill or grill pan to high heat.
- 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.
- 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).
- 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.
- 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.
- Serve with the oil at the table for extra dipping or drizzles!
