Ingredients
- 2-4 lean thin cut sirloin or minute steaks
- 1 garlic clove, peeled and crushed
- 1 large handful freshly chopped flat-leaf parsely
- 1 small bunch fresh basil leaves
- 1 small bunch fresh mint leaves
- 5ml / 1 tsp capers, optional
- 5ml / 1 tsp lemon juice
- 45ml / 3 tbsp olive oil
- salt and freshly milled black pepper
- 2 small baguettes or ciabatta bread, cut in half
- quarter cucumber, peeled and sliced

Method
To prepare the salsa verde; put the garlic, herbs, capers, if used, and lemon juice into blender with 30ml (2tbsp) olive oil. Blend together until coarsely chopped. Season. Heat the remaining oil in a pan and cook the steaks for 2-4 minutes on each side. Lay the steaks over the salad and top with the remaining bread.
Spread the salsa verde evenly over the bread and garnish with the cucumber and tomato slices.
Serve immediately with chunky chips.
Tips:
Store any remaining salsa verde in the fridge for up to 3 days, or for extra speed use a jar of prepared salsa verde or pesto sauce. Try this recipe with your favourite bread
