Sirloin with Crispy Fries

Beef Grilled & Broiled
Prep time:
10 minutes
Cooking time:
20 minutes

It's not necessary to throw away old garlic. To tame its strong flavor, remove the green-colored shoot from the bulb's center. Boiling the garlic for about 5 minutes will also reduce the harsh flavor.

To make cleanup easy and quick, line the broiler pan with heavy-duty foil before broiling the steaks. The foil will protect the pan from getting greasy, and that means one less pan to scrub!

Great Pairings

Poppy Seed Dressing with Salad Greens

Olive oil has a lot of flavor, especially extra virgin but at a price. Canola, peanut or plain vegetable oil makes a lighter and tasty base for this salad dressing, and will cost a fraction of what olive oil costs.
