Best Chargrilled Steak

If you love your weekly steak, here's a great way to take it up a few notches. The combination of thyme, beef and mushrooms with the salsa verde is so so good and can't be beaten. For the salsa verde: Finely chop the garlic, capers, gherkins, anchovies and herbs and put them into a bowl.

Beef Stew
