• Cooking indoors will generate excessive smoke.
• Heat your grill to the highest possible temperature Turn off burners (to avoid flame up) then immediately add steak Cook for 2 minutes on first side Flip and cook on other side for 1 minute.
• (The steak will be very pink inside - yum!) Remove and serve immediately as it will cool quickly.
• I recommend serving over garlic mashed potatoes with either wasabi mustard or wasabi mustard/mayo mix.
• Enjoy!
