Marinating Time: 6 hours or overnight
Total Preparation & Cooking Time: 30-40 minutes 


Ingredients:

1

 

Beef top round steak cut 3/4 inch thick (about 1 pound)

 

pound asparagus, trimmed

1

 

teaspoon olive oil

3 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese
salt

 


 

Marinade:

1/4

 

cup red wine vinegar

2

 

tablespoons olive oil

1

tablespoon fresh thyme

2

large cloves garlic, minced

2 teaspoons steak seasoning blend
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper

Instructions:

1.

 

Combine marinade ingredients in medium bowl. Place beef steak and marinade in food-safe plastic bag; turn steak to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turn occasionally.

2.

 

Remove steak from marinade; discard marinade. Toss asparagus with oil. Place steak in center of grid over medium, ash-covered coals; arrange asparagus around steak. Grill steak, uncovered, 8-9 minutes for medium rare doneness, turning occasionally. Grill asparagus 6-10 minutes or until crisp-tender, turning occasionally.

3.

 

Sprinkle cheese over asparagus immediately. Carve steak into thin slices. Season with salt, as desired. Serve with asparagus.

 
Cook's Tips:
1. To prepare on gas grill, preheat grill according to manufacturer's directions for medium heat. Grill steaks covered, 10-11 minutes for medium rare doneness, turning once. (Do not overcook). Grill asparagus, 8-12 minutes or until crisp-tender, turning occasionally.
2. To make asparagus spears easier to turn on the grill, thread them ladder-style onto two 12 inch metal skewers. Insert a skewer about 1 inch from each end of spear, leaving small space between spears. Use tongs to turn entire asparagus "ladder" for even cooking.

 

Makes 4 servings.
