What a great combination. Asparagus, beef, and a balsamic vinegar marinade. This is a great appetizer to kick off a meal and it's easy to prepare.

Ingredients


asparagus 1 lb ends trimmed
rib-eye steak 1/2 lb sliced thin
salt 1/2 tsp to taste
black pepper 1/4 tsp to taste
balsamic vinegar 1 cup
olive oil 1/2 cup


Directions

  1. Salt and pepper the thin slices of rib eye steak.
  2. Carefully take one slice of the beef and wrap it around an asparagus spear. Repeat.
  3. Place the asparagus in a shallow baking dish and cover with the balsamic vinegar.
  4. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  5. Heat a frying pan over high heat and add the olive oil. Reduce to medium heat.
  6. Fry the wrapped asparagus until the meat is cooked. This should take about 3 minutes on each side.
  7. Remove to a serving plate and allow it to sit for about 10 minutes.


Notes

Ask your butcher to slice your rib eye steak into thin slices.
