One for the Win Column


 
September and October mean two things: the busy season at school and work and fall foods! We haven't been able to cook as much but this steak dish was one of the best things we have ever done. If you don't know, both of us have extensive recipe collections from a wide variety of magazines and internet sites (most of which we haven't used...) that we can turn to for inspiration. This recipe came out of Stacie's brand new recipe binder and will be made again and again. The best part? This really only takes one pan. Start with some olive oil and saute the zucchini with some garlic, salt and pepper for about 5 minutes. Season the steak with salt and pepper, set the zucchini aside and cover it, then sear the steak on both sides in the same pan. Set the steaks aside, leave the juices from the meat and reduce a third of a cup of balsamic vinegar until it is nearly gel like consistency. The sauce completely makes this dish (even for someone who doesn't like vinegar anything...). Total time, less than 20 minutes for an extremely impressive and tasty dish. Enjoy!

And look out for our transition into apple and pumpkin frenzy soon!
