Mamma mia! Enjoy this BBQ beef eye fillet steak meal, paired with Sicilian-style grilled courgette and a hearty white bean salad. This light yet satisfying dish is perfect for summer grilling and offers a nutritious, flavourful balance.
The olives give this salad a dirty martini vibe. We love this served with flatbreads on the side and in the evening sun.
