Grilled meat practically exists to be
drunk with Malbec – the char is amazing
with the gritty earth of the grape.

5. Dice the avocadoes by cutting in half,
removing pit, using a paring knife to
cross hatch the flesh and scoop out the
flesh with a spoon.
3. Make the Steak Rub: Pour half of the
jalapeno slices, half the garlic, 1 teaspoon
salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper into a small
pile on a cutting board and keep cutting
through the mixture with your knife
until the jalapeno starts releasing its
juices and you have made a wet paste.
Rub mixture over steaks.
4. Cook the Steaks: Rub a grill pan with
1 teaspoon of canola oil and place over
high heat. Once grill starts to smoke, add
steaks and cook to medium rare, turning
once (approximately 3-4 minutes per
side). Remove to a plate and allow to rest
for 5 minutes. Slice against the grain
To slice tougher cuts of meat against
the grain, just position your knife
perpendicular to the grain and slice as
thinly as possible.
