Grilled Sirloin Steak with Herb Sauce

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
SERVES: 4

Cooking spray
1½ lb sirloin steak (1 inch thick)
1½ Tbsp steak rub (your fave)
½ cup fresh parsley
½ cup olive oil
1½ tsp red-wine vinegar
1 tsp dried oregano
1 clove garlic, minced
½ tsp salt
Pinch black pepper

1. Spray grill or broiler pan with cooking spray, then preheat. Sprinkle both sides of the steak with the rub.
2. In a blender, combine the parsley, olive oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend until mixture is thick and smooth. (It will keep for at least a week in the fridge.)
3. Place steak on grill for about 5 minutes. Flip and cook on the other side until it reaches desired doneness (make a small incision in the meat to check).
4. Let the steak rest for about 10 minutes, then slice in thin strips across the grain. Serve it with the sauce for dipping or drizzling.

Quickie-side suggestions: Serve with a bag of  green salad, french fries (sprinkle with Italian seasoning after baking), or mashed potatoes (the instant kind take 5 minutes). Steamed broccoli or fresh spinach sautéed in a little olive oil also goes great with steak!
