Servings: 4
A bold and briny vinaigrette acts as both marinade and sauce for beefy grilled steak. Serve with garlic rubbed grilled bread and a green salad, if you like. If you can’t find Denver steak, substitute top sirloin or New York strip.
Ingredients
- 3 Tbs. red wine vinegar
- 2 medium cloves garlic, minced
- 1 Tbs. Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp. anchovy paste
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 Denver steaks (about 8 oz. each)
- Kosher salt and coarsely ground black pepper

Preparation
- In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, garlic, mustard, and anchovy paste. Slowly whisk in the oil.
- Put the steaks in a glass or ceramic dish large enough to hold them in a single layer. Reserve 1/4 cup of the vinaigrette and pour the rest evenly over the steaks. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 and up to 24 hours. (Refrigerate the reserved marinade if not using within a few hours. Return to room temperature before using.) About 45 minutes before serving, remove the steaks from the refrigerator.
- Prepare a medium-high (400°F) gas or charcoal grill fire. Take the steaks out of the marinade, letting any excess drip off, and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 4 minutes, flip, and grill until medium rare (130°F), about 4 minutes more. Transfer to a cutting board to rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, season the tomato slices with salt and grill them on one side only until grill marks appear, about 3 minutes. Using a spatula, transfer them to a plate.
- Whisk the capers and parsley into the reserved vinaigrette. Cut the steaks across the grain into 1/2-inch-thick slices and serve with the tomatoes and the vinaigrette.

Austinhorseguy | 06/30/2021So happy to be the 1st to rave about this recipe. I usually always edit new recipes to fit my own tastes but this one read so well I made it as is. I buy Denver steak often since I work at Whole Foods Market who always has great meat and seafood. I marinated for a full 24 hours and cooked on a gas grill. I did double the sauce ingredients since I made 3 large Denvers.
The results...STUNNING. Everything complemented each other and for me was a complete meal with the grilled garlic bread. I'm now making my ceaser salad dressing and using thin sliced leftovers for a ceaser salad topper. Thank you for this awesome dish. The sauce/marinade could for for chicken as well. A definite keeper for me.
