Ingredients:

3/4 lb asparagus
340g
1 red pepper
80g
4 beef fillets
800g
1 tbsp olive oil
14g
2 shallots
100g
1 tsp black pepper
2g
1 cup mixed greens (or salad mix)
70g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Wash the asparagus and trim the woody ends.
- Cut the red pepper into strips.
- Peel and finely chop the shallots.
2. Preheat the Grill:
- Heat the grill to medium-high.
3. Grill the Vegetables:
- Toss the asparagus and red pepper strips with half of the olive oil and a pinch of black pepper.
- Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have nice char marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.
4. Prepare the Steaks:
- Rub the beef fillets with the remaining olive oil and season each steak generously with black pepper.
5. Grill the Steaks:
- Place the beef fillets on the preheated grill.
- Cook for about 3-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. (Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets).
- Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
6. Assemble the Salad:
- In a large bowl, combine the grilled asparagus, grilled red pepper strips, chopped shallots, and mixed greens.
- Drizzle with any remaining olive oil and toss gently to combine.
7. Serve:
- Plate the grilled steak and serve alongside the asparagus and capsicum salad.
- Optionally, garnish with a squeeze of lemon juice or sprinkle of fresh herbs.

Tips:

- Ensure your beef fillets are at room temperature before grilling for an even cook.

- Trim the woody ends off the asparagus to ensure they are tender when cooked.

- Use a high-quality olive oil for the best flavor and health benefits.

- To get those beautiful grill marks, avoid moving the steak around too much on the grill.

- Allow the steak to rest for a few minutes after grilling to retain its juices and flavor.

- Feel free to add a drizzle of balsamic vinaigrette or lemon juice to your salad for an extra zing.

And there you have it—a beautifully chargrilled steak paired with a fresh and vibrant asparagus and capsicum salad. This meal is not only visually appealing but also packed with nutrients and great flavors. Whether you’re cooking for yourself, your family, or guests, this dish is sure to impress. Enjoy your meal!
