Grilled Beef Tenderloin Steaks with Strawberry Basil Salsa

Summer dinners are meant to be fresh and simple. This steak dinner is no exception. The fresh strawberry basil salsa adds a pop of sweetness on top of each juicy steak. Serve this with quinoa or arugula salad and a glass of rose and you have a gourmet meal to enjoy on the patio!

1. Preheat grill to high. Lightly oil the grill grate.
2. Combine salsa ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.

 

3. Season steaks well on both sides with salt and pepper. Grill for 4 minutes per side (for medium rare), then rest on a plate for 10 minutes.

 

 

4. Slice steak, spoon salsa over and serve.
