Looking at the ultimate lazy dinner for two, this cheats romesco sauce is big flavour with minimal effort. Traditionally from Spain, this roasted red pepper and almond sauce is complex and perfect to go under tender rounds of eye fillet.
You could make your own roasted peppers and if that's the way you're inclined, then go for it. Otherwise we advocate for jarred roasted peppers - the ultimate lifesaver and they keep in the fridge for a host of other dishes. The other shortcut? We use almond butter instead of grinding up our own almonds. Two pantry stable items that will help you shortcut to the fanciest and best steak sauce around.
