| French Grilled Steak (Entrecôte)
French,

| This recipe was made for us by our friend, Michel Saloff-Coste, and his son, Ulysses while visiting us from Paris. Grilling beef with herbs has a sensational perfume that is best complemented by a full-bodied French wine. If you look closely at the top of the seasoned steak you will see purple lavender blossoms - part of the Herbes de Provence mix. To recreate a true bistro meal, serve with Oven French Fries. |

| Notes
|
NOTE Ribeye has more fat, which provides a lot of flavor, but also means your steak will have some waste, so if you are unsure of the size to buy, err on the side of a larger steak. New York Strip is also a successful cut that works in this style. Left-over steak provides a great indulgence the next day for a breakfast of fried eggs with steak on the side!
